So, before you start work, carefully thought-out plan, prepare all the necessary tools and materials. You will need a brush for sweeping with a long handle, which is convenient to maintain wallpaper brush to apply glue, a brush or rag to smooth out the wallpaper, scissors, roller to smooth and snug brim rolls, knife, plumb and level, tape measure, the capacity for adhesive glue wallpaper, sponge to remove excess glue, for gluing table, ladders.
Today we introduce you to some of the rules of papering the walls of wallpaper, that will help you do yourself the wall smooth, beautiful and smooth. First of all, remove all unnecessary nails and spikes, opening the enclosure, apply a plaster solution. By pasting wallpaper imported dry conditions make good use of cellulose reinforced gypsum filler, which gives a smooth, flat surface with good filling cracks and holes. In humid same premises in order to avoid subsequent peeling off the walls should be used only water-resistant putty, relating to discharge elevation. Before pasting to the wall primed with deep penetration, or the diluted glue, which reinforces the surface. This is especially important if you're going to stick wallpaper, categorized as "heavy." After drying, cover the walls of newspapers or paper. If the wall has already glued wallpaper, tear them. Old wallpaper removed in dry form, without water or special chemical solvents. On the walls, covered with plywood and dry coating, all seams seal the newsprint in 2-3 layers.
Before gluing should definitely check out all the rolls: whether their number is required if there are any pictures of them with a different design if they have one and tighter link to the color and number matching. If the embedded special instructions, then follow it. Before you cut the wallpaper, it is necessary to pay attention to marking symbols, which are available on the insert, namely the rapport. Can meet option, when not adhered to customize the picture (wallpaper without the pattern and glued without fitting). If drawing a straight line fit in the picture is not needed, wallpaper glued without a significant shift to match the picture. Shifted fit means fitting on the image, subsequent panel is glued to the vertical shift relative to the previous one. Counter sticker - inverted stamping, ie, each subsequent canvases glued to the opposite direction relative to the previous one. Sometimes the figure indicates the ratio of bias in the figures, such as 56/26, 5 (in this case, rapport and offset are adjusted in centimeters, in accordance with these figures). Thus, the length of the cloths at the wallpaper with a large figure should equal the height of the wall plus a rapport.
Cloth cut with scissors or a special knife for cutting wallpaper. The first panel is cut so that after gluing a small strip of land went up at the ceiling. Before cutting off the following, you must affix the first segment so that you can see how much must be left to all following the flag match. Used to glue the kind of glue that is recommended by the manufacturer of this type of wallpaper, for example, vinyl wallpaper is recommended to use adhesives that contain fungicidal. General form of glue depends primarily on the weight and density of wallpaper. Typically, the heavier the wallpaper, the thicker must be the glue, and the more time they need to soak. For simple moisture-resistant wallpaper is best to use glue "synthetic" or "Bustilat. The best adhesive for simple wallpaper - "CMC". Washable wallpaper paste, using formulations based on PVA. On high-quality, embossed, corrugated, embossed, "under the silk, the wallpaper is usually indicated the recommended type of adhesive. For the simple wallpapers used glue from corn or maize starch, diluted with water. For the special wallpapers and special surfaces, a special wallpaper paste, which contains a synthetic resin powder, which increases tack and prevents mold. Best glues dispersion adhesive, which is used for working with thick fabric and metallic wallpaper, and is also used as a supplement to other kinds of wallpaper paste.
Cut the cloth laid out on the desktop, face down and with a brush glue evenly on the wallpaper from the middle to the edges. You must completely cover the surface of the cloth. Then, in order to better soak the glue, wallpaper stack up as follows: from the bottom - toward the middle, missed surfaces inside or on the type of accordion. After this wallpaper left in such a way to soften for several minutes. All banners should be impregnated with the same amount of time. Wallpaper glue together is more convenient, especially if they have a pattern that needs to be customized. They can be glued only on dry wall. Thin plaster wallpaper once, and glue can be cold, hard - twice the warm glue. Since only a few walls, windows and doors do have a direct and correct form, it is always necessary to do the vertical lines using a plumb line. Pasting is carried out at windows and doors closed. Start from the window, so the wall right of the cut left edge to the left of the window - right.
After impregnation of the first panel is attached to the wall, according to a vertical layout, tightly pressed and smoothed, first at the top using a brush with soft bristles in the direction from the middle to the corners, to avoid bubbles, wrinkles and folds (if wallpaper smooth - you can use a rubber cushion to smooth the seams, if it is wallpaper high embossing or relief, you can only use a brush, light tapping which are joined seams). Then, in the same way smoothed the lower part of the cloth. After sticking a panel, the speakers at the top and bottom edges are trimmed wallpaper with a knife. As a ruler can be used straight staple.
If the formation of wrinkles when applied, then under the wallpaper came airlock. In this case, you should carefully peel cloth, apply glue to it again. If, however, and after that the bubbles do not disappear, it means that the wallpaper is not enough impregnated with glue. Wrinkles disappear after drying. Bubbles can be punctured by a needle or cut the blade. Ventilate the room only after the complete drying out of wallpaper, different wallpaper disappear. Self-paste the wall had many. Sometimes with good results.
Let's go:

2. Use the glue to wallpaper For a good treatment of the deciding factors are properly selected adhesive and the necessary proportions of the solution. Our recommendation: If the wallpaper heavy and absorbs moisture, the glue must be thick. Better to leave a thick glue and apply a thin layer, rather than vice versa.
3. How to cut the wallpaper Room height = length of cloth wallpaper 0,05 m allowance above and below the cuts. In each roll you will find a leaflet, which indicated rapport, pasting, without adjustment or a sign for the label. Please pay attention to these notes.

Pay attention to all the panel was equally mild.
5. How to paste wallpaper Start with the first panel on either side of the window. Previously, with a plumb, mark a vertical line (the windows are not always straight). Attach the first panel. Top and bottom edges, leave about 3 cm, so they can be then cut, then press the wallpaper against the wall hands. In order not to leave air bubbles, flatten the wallpaper on the direction from the middle to the edges, using a brush for wallpapering or rubber roller. If you are dealing with smooth wallpaper, use a roller to smooth out the seams. If you paste the wallpaper high embossing, use a brush, through which light pat seams are joined. Speakers from the top and bottom edges are trimmed wallpaper with a knife. As a ruler can be used straight spatula. Adhesive residue should be removed as soon as possible with a clean cloth.
6. Making borders If you want to draw your original wall, then you need a curb. There are two possible labels curbs • Ex-foliating wallpaper notch. Then the top layer is removed and the border is glued to the bottom layer of wallpaper (conventional wallpaper adhesive). • In some wallpaper border can stick directly on the canvas. In this case, a special curb-glue.
