Every person may have a moment when he suddenly understands that he was tired of what he sees around every day. But not always this understanding entails the readiness for the cardinal change of the interior and the global alteration of the apartment. Then comes to the aid of a successful designer solution - replacing the usual wallpapers on the photo wallpaper. And if during the first decoration of the apartment-new building in doubts, it does not arise in the need for rough preparation of the walls, then with subsequent cosmetic repairs, the volume, cost and patronage of work cause justified panic. There may also be a need to leave with photo wallpapers not the whole wall, but only its plot (as an option - the photo). In these cases, a logical question arises: is it possible to glue the photo wallpaper on old wallpapers? The answer to it can be positive only while observing the rigid conditions.

3. Old wallpaper should be moisture-resistant, i.e., when applied to them glue, the coloring layer should not dissolve and leave traces.
4. If the existing coating is textured, the relief depth should not exceed 0.2-0.3 mm. Even low-rise height differences can distort the drawing, especially if we are talking about fashionable 3D-photo wallpapers.

If the wall cover satisfies all the conditions, you can act. Well, if old Material At least one of the items is not suitable, alas, from this idea will have to refuse.

When smoothing the canvas, the glue residues are extruded out and then washed off with a wet sponge. You need to start raking from the center and only a roller or plastic spatula.

You can not wipe with a rag, as it can spoil appearance and the texture of photographic.

Then the leaf of the joints need a small tassel once again to wash with glue and tightly told the roller to the wall. Such actions need to be produced consistently, with each sheet separately.

In addition to small rooms, the photo wallpaper will also be appropriate for the design of the kitchen walls. For this purpose, waterproof wallpapers are made, for example, with thematic images of different types of nature.

Not so long ago, the photo wallpaper was printed only on ordinary paper or film. Today, there is a very large range of such a finish having a very large assortment. different texture and manufactured from the most different materials.

Varieties of photo wallpaper

Wall murals can be divided into several criteria - this is the material of manufacturing, surface texture, number of layers, subject, as well as the visual volume of the image.

Technology of sticking and thoroughness of surface preparation for different types of photo wallpaper varies somewhat among themselves, therefore, these factors also need to get some information.

By manufacturing material, this finishing material is divided into:

• paper;
• fliseline;
• fabric;
• vinyl.

All types of wallpapers can have one or two layers. Two-layer options call "duplex", and single-layer - "Simplex". And two-layer photographs have lining layer (basis) made from a material that differs from the main thing that gives the wallpaper additional positive properties, which largely depend on the technology of pasting.

All photo walls are divided into ordinary, pasted with liquid glue, and self-adhesive, which is already applied with a glue composition, covered with a special film, removed only immediately before their sticking on the wall.

Varieties of photo wallpaper for manufacturing material

To know what differs from each other, wallpapers made from different materials should be viewed by some characteristics:

Paper Wallpaper

Paper photo wallpapers are extremely rare today - they are chosen only in cases where it is necessary to purchase the most inexpensive finish option. For the rest of its qualities, they significantly lose the photo wallpaper made from modern materialsSince they have low moisture resistance, quickly burn out, and quite complex in sticking.

Paper photo wallpaper are only single-layer, and glue them to a classic way to a simple wallpaper glue for paper wallpaper. At the same time, it is important to take into account the thickness of the wallpapers - from this factor will depend on their impregnation with adhesive mass. It is usually from 3 to 10 minutes.

If the material is not sufficiently impregnated with glue, the wallpaper will be bad for the surface of the wall and difficult bubbles can be formed under them.

Even with the compliance with all the requirements of technology and high-quality gloves, after their drying through thin paper wallpaper, everyone will occur, even minor flaws of the walls.

Of the advantages of this finishing material, you can only be called their low cost. In addition, the glue used for their installation is also inexpensive.

Fliseline photo wallpaper

Fliseline wallpaper today is considered the most popular, as they not only have a fully affordable price, but also easily glued on the surface of the walls. Fliselin is a soft and light nonwoven material consisting of cellulose fibers. From the wrong side, it is somewhat reminded by paper. The facial coating is washing, so such wallpapers can be laid on the walls in kitchen room. However, it should be remembered that they do not have resistance to mechanical effects and abrasion.

Fliselin wallpaper - very comfortable in sticking

Wall murals of this class are manufactured in two versions - these are paper on a fliesline basis and completely fliseline.

The first are covered with embossed high-quality paper, which creates a certain relief on the surface.

The second consist only of phlizelin, and most often their surface imitates the texture of plaster. A similar version of photo walls can be used to decorate the walls of the kitchen, living room or bedroom, as they are breathable and environmentally friendly.

Wall murals from Flizelin have a number of positive qualities:

• When they are glued, the composition is applied only on the surface of the wall - it is not necessary to apply the wallpaper to the wallpaper itself. However, you need to choose a special composition of glue, which is intended for this material.

Therefore, gluing the canvas from Fliselina is simple enough, and those who tried to work with wallpaper from this material will continue to prefer it.

• Wall murals from Flizelina can even be used several times, as they are easily removed from the wall. Therefore, if in a room decorated with photo wallpapers, it was decided to change the design, then the canvases neatly removed from the walls are quite possible to cross the other wall.
• Flizelin wallpapers contribute to the preservation of the surface integrity on which it is pasted. Therefore, with a shrinkage at home, they will not only be bored by themselves, but also will hold out the extension or discrepancies of the emerging small cracks.
• When putting them on the wall, there are no air bubbles under them. The canvas are easy to join, as they have a stretch property.
• Due to its structural structure, this material is capable of disguise small flaws on the wall - through such photographs will not peck insignificant protrusions or recesses.

Textile photo wallpaper

Textile wallpapers have a rich history, since not one century is used. But with the advent of new materials and fashion trends They changed and improved. The progenitor of fabric photo arts can be called tapestries, which were attached to the walls, and also had images of landscapes and flower arrangements.

Textile wallpapers are the "descendants" of the ancient way of finishing walls with tapestries

This type of wallpaper refers to the category of luxury and fairly expensive materials, as they are made from natural fabrics, such as silk, flax, cotton and others. Some options for tissue wallpapers are printed on canvas made of natural linen fibers.

Modern textile Wall murals are made on several bases - it is a flizelin, paper and PVC (self-adhesive). It depends on what basis they are produced, and what density have.

Fabric Wallpaper on Flizelin glue easily, as well as ordinary phlizelin wallpaper - they have a soft and lightweight basis.

The material made on a paper basis is pasted with the same glue as ordinary paper wallpapers.

Self-adhesive wallpapers are fixed on the wall with the help of glue applied to the canvas on the reverse side. In order for such photographic windows securely on the walls, their surfaces need to be thoroughly prepared, aligning and processing the primer.

Textile wallpapers, glued on liquid glue, are completely able to disguise small flaws on the walls.

There are also single-layer textile wallpapers. They are considered a classic option, fasten on the wall by applying glue on it. When gluing photo wallpapers to the surface of the canvas remains almost dry.

For stickers of fabric wallpaper, the same glue is used as for vinyl canvases or type "Bustylate".

Vinyl photo wallpaper

Vinyl photo wallpapers are quite popular, as it looks perfectly on the wall. However, they are more dense, and therefore are quite complex in sticking.

It should be noted that the vinyl is synthetic materialwhich is obtained by copolymerization of rubber and styrene, resulting in one of the types of plastic. Wall murals from this material are resistant to moisture and abrasion, they can have a smooth or foamed coating. A smooth finish option is different called satin.

Vinyl photo wallpapers can be made on a paper or fliesline basis and they are pasted corresponding to the composition. They are tough enough, so the process of their fixing on the wall is quite complicated.

The glue is applied to the wallpaper canvas 5-10 minutes before sticking them. The canvas folds in three additions for best impregnation. While it is soaked, the glue mass needs to be treated the surface of the wall in the fastening area. After the wallpaper is soaked, they are glued onto the wall and smoothed the so-called "Christmas tree", that is, they carry out a rubber spatula or soft cloth In the middle of the canvas, pressing it against the wall, and then from the center, starting from the top edge, smoothes a sheet to the side, kicking over the air bubbles. After that, the wallpaper is additionally resurrected by a rubber roller. Due to the fact that this type of material is quite thick and hard, the canvases are pasted only to join.

In addition to the above options, self-adhesive vinyl wallpapers are produced, which are comfortable in sticking, but require serious preparation of the foundation. For them, a perfectly smooth surface is needed, otherwise folds may appear, and throw them on the applied adhesive layer - no longer work. Therefore, the sticking of these photo wakes is complicated by the fact that it is impossible to fit or pull them up, the canvas immediately should accurately get to the place prepared for it.

Types of photo wallpapers

As mentioned above, the photo wallpaper differ in the texture of its surface, which directly affects the appearance of the drawing, resistance to abrasion and moisture.

Previously, when this finishing material was printed only on paper or film, two smooth surfaces differed - it is paper and laminated, waterproof.

Today, photo walls can have several types of textured surface reliefs and, despite the fact that they are not smooth, their coating is quite designed for wet cleaning.

Wall mural differ in the textured surface by the following relief figures:

• plaster;
• sand;
• painting;
• canvas.

The texture of the canvas helps to hide their joints and strengthen the volume of the drawing, as well as disguise small wall surface defects.

TUTURAL SURFACE "Plaster"

Wall murals with a surface, imitating plaster, can be glossy or matte. Teacurity is laid in a layer of vinyl or phlizelin, from which textured wallpaper is most often produced.

The relief of the rough surface is minimal and even uniform if it simulates the usual smooth covered wall, creating the effect of frescoes on the wall.

In case of simulation venetian plasterThe relief is more noticeable and repeats the forms of objects depicted on photographic windows or architectural structures.

Material with a more pronounced embossed surface is able to hide the defectiveness of the wall, as the first look is attracted primarily.

Wall murals, made in this technique, are aesthetically looking at the wall, and with high-quality sticking of them it is impossible to distinguish visually from natural painting on crude or Venetian plaster.

Textured Surface "Sand"

Wall murals with a surface having the effect of sand, somewhat resemble a rough plaster. They can have a more pronounced large or small factory. So, it imitates the grains of sand, having a size of 1 ÷ 3 to 5 mm. Depending on this parameter, the relief depth is located for which it serves as the basis of the usual or foamed vinyl, as well as the flieslinic material.

"Sandy" texture of the surface of the photo walls is well masked by small irregularities wall

Wallpaper with the effect of sand beautifully looks on the wall and can hide roughness, small potholes and scratches on its surface. However, this relief has certain disadvantages, which, however, are fully corrected. So, the embossed pattern is able to scap dust, so the surface requires regular wet cleaning.

Similar texture - it looks original, but difficulties may arise with regular cleaning

Wall murals with a sand effect have a matte surface - this is their quality also contribute to the masking of irregularities on the wall.

Textured surface "Painting"

Wall mural "Painting" imitates the effect of mastichene smears or brush, which gives the walls glued onto the walls a special warm texture of the living drawing. The relief that can have a depth of no more than 3 mm is also created using vinyl or phlizelin. The surface of this type of wallpaper can be matte or glossy, so you can always make a choice between them. A matte surface in a complex with a terrain of thick smears of oil paint perfectly hobs the irregularities of the wall and creates the effect of a picturesque picture.

Original Wallpaper with texture "under painting"

This type of wallpaper, as well as in other embossed options, there is a general drawback - this is rapid pollution from dust, but the "strokes" are still much easier to be wet cleaning than sandy texture.

Textured surface "canvas"

Wall murals, having a canvas texture, are somewhat similar to the "picturesque" option, as they also create the effect of a real picture. The relief of the canvas fibers, with a thin layer of picturesque drawing applied to it, cannot hide small wall defects and therefore the surface will not seem smooth. In this regard, for such photocoposes, it is necessary to thoroughly align the wall.

Wallpapers with the texture "under canvas"

Wall mural, imitating canvas, are manufactured in a glossy and matte version on the phliselin and vinyl-based basis, so they can be put in order with wet cleaning.

3D wallpaper

Wall murals made in 3D-technician create an effect of expanding space. They seem to continue the room, making it a continuation of the forest landscape or spring garden. This version of wall decoration is particularly suitable for sticking in small rooms, as it enhances the room visually several times. As a rule, 3D wallpapers are placed entirely throughout the area of \u200b\u200bthe wall - from the ceiling to the floor. It is the location along with the picture located on them contributes to the creation of the desired effect of "presence".

For the manufacture of such photo wheels, fliesline is used, so they are easy to care for them using a conventional soap solution.

Since this type of finishing material is made on a phliseline basis, 3D photocopal sticking is carried out by the same principle that has already been mentioned above.

In order for the global process to be successful, under 3D-wallpaper it is necessary to thoroughly prepare the surface, aligning it and processing the primer.

Similar wallpapers are pasted, and pairing separate sheets It should be very neat, otherwise the effect of three-dimensionality will be lost.

In order not to lose the "presence effect", such a wallpaper must be glued with the highest accuracy

After completion of the work, the finish must be allowed to dry well and only after that it is possible to cut off the extra parts located on the wall or floor plane.

Process sticker photo version

Like all finishing processes, the photo wallpaper sticker begins with the preparatory work. Therefore, you need to know how they are conducted, since sometimes the result of the design of the room mainly depends on this.

Photo Wall Tools

For high-quality work, some tools will be required, without which it will not work with the gluing process. Therefore, it should be prepared:

- roulette, metal line and simple pencil;

- building level;

- stationery knife with replaceable blades and scissors;

- wallpaper or rubber spatula and rubber roller;

- a wide brush and a large foam sponge;

- soft clean fabric;

- tank for glue breeding;

- Step or reliable stool.

Prepare everything you need can go to the following steps of work.

Preparatory activities

Whatever the thickness of the walls of wallpaper, the wall under their stagnation is recommended, to prepare well, otherwise all defects can stick through the surface of the wallpaper canvases.

The preparation process will depend on the quality of the surface to which photo wallpapers will be labeled. Some walls require careful alignment, as they have large drops Planes, others sufficiently align by applying a thin layer of putty.

• If wallpapers having a high embossed pattern are selected, and the surface of the walls is relatively smooth, it is necessary to simply process the primer.

Grinding walls also requires compliance with certain rules

How correct for further finish, and what formulations for this are optimal - in a separate publication of our portal.

• Enough smooth wallsBut having small cracks and "sinks" must be treated with putty. True, this process will already require a certain experience.

Splatlevka - excellent material for the preparation of walls to further finish!

Possible, it will not immediately start to get. Not scary - Read the instructions for the designated in a separate publication of the portal, practice - and it will go!

Herway will have to be the one who in the room the surface of the wall has large deformations or differences from vertical level. It must be completely aligned, after installing the beacon system. Moreover, the plastering of the walls does not eliminate the owners from their further putty.

After aligning the walls in any way, they must be carefully primed, preferably in two layers. The primer will create high adhesion for materials, thanks to which the wallpaper will well be fixed on the wall surface.

Preparation of adhesive composition

Further, you can move to the dilution of glue, since any composition should draw a certain time before becoming fully finished use. The method of dilution of glue, order and timing of its insistence, as a rule, are indicated on the packaging.

Glue divorce B. comfortable tank - Typically, a plastic bucket is used for this. It flows into it water temperature, and then a dry slide substrate is gradually suited into it, and the whole composition is constantly mixed.

Before the start of work, glue should be mixed again, as it should be absolutely homogeneous, without lumps and inclusions.

Wall markup under the shocking photo

While the adhesive composition is insistant, you can make a wall marking, by defining the exact location of each canvase of the photo wallpaper.

It must be remembered that the main lines on which the first sheets of wallpaper will be equal are the most important, as they ask the direction to all other canvases. If the line is bevel, then the photo walls will be glued unevenly, which will reduce the effect of the resulting result.

In the size of acquired wallpapers on the wall, their extreme borders are noted. They are necessarily controlled in terms of or plundering, as they should be perfect vertical.

Process of sticking of beans

• The glue is applied to the surface of the wall, and if technology needs to be applied to the wallpaper canvas, it is applied to it. Wall mural can not be kept in a blank form for a long time, so the canvas need to be covered with glue not all at once, but only in turn.
• The canvas turns three times, and leaves for a while for impregnation. Wallpaper should be folded very carefully so that the lighted lines are not formed on the outside.

• Then, there is a sticking of the first top of the wallpaper. It is applied by the marked extreme line and align on the horizontal strip. After that, from top to bottom and on the part, with the help of a wallpaper spatula, the glue and retaining air bubbles are expelled, while smoothing the cloth on the wall surface.

Possible variant Closeing of photo wallpapers - from the center of the composition to the edges

• Next, the next bottom sheet passes, which adjoins the top. Moreover, the complexity of its installation lies in the fact that it is necessary to very accurately combine the drawing.
• Then, the second top of the photo wallpaper passes, also, with an accurate facing pattern.
• After that, the second lower part - and so on until all the photo wallpapers will be glued.

Here it is necessary to make a reservation that some sheets of photo walls are stuck online, while other flashes, therefore, before proceeding to work, it is recommended to decompose them on the floor and define them right docking. Sometimes, the glued mustache wallpapers have to be customized on the wall, cutting out the sheets superimposed on each other, and then glue their edges.

In order for the wallpaper to be reliably sealed to the wall surface, they are rolled to it with a rubber roller - this process is carried out from the center of the canvas to the parties, simultaneously with rolling from under sheets will be finally removed and excess adhesive masses.

A very important event is the process of correct organization of the drying of photographic. This should take place extremely naturally, that is, without additional heating of air in the room and, be sure, without drafts. If you do not comply with these rules and accelerate the drying of the surfaces, then the canvas can crack on the wall or simply cut out from it, and the work will be fully corrupted.

Features of self-adhesive photo wallpaper

In conclusion, I would like to say a few words about self-adhesive wallpaper consisting of two layers - decorative and substrate, which protects the adhesive layer.

Many people think that it is much easier to stick such a finishing material than simple wallpaper on liquid glue, but this is an absolutely erroneous point of view. Taking this finish, without having experience in conducting a similar process, with a very large probability, it can be assumed that wallpapers will be corrupted.

• Firstly, normal wallpapers, even already pasted on the wall, some time can be adjusted, and self-tier is fixed immediately, and it will be completely impossible to correct it on the surface.
• Secondly, from under wallpapers pasted on liquid glue, it is easy to remove air bubbles and excess glue, and from under self-keys it is much more difficult to do it. Sometimes it even has to resort to small punctures or cuts so that the surface becomes smooth.
• Thirdly, the process of sticking self-keys is better to hold together for one master to guide and gradually laid the wallpaper, and the second is parallel, as the substrate has been removed as strokes.

• Fourthly, the base for self-adhesive wallpaper requires special training, since the surface must be perfectly flat and purified from different compositionsinterfering with dense and high-quality stagnation of finishing material.

Therefore, if there is no experience in this work, it is better not to risk and use the photo wallpapers, which are glued in the traditional way.

Wall mural are one of the most interesting. decorative elements In interior design. If it is decided to apply them to decorate one of the rooms at home or apartment, and sticking to spend yourself yourself, then you should not hurry. It is necessary to mobilize all its accuracy, calcality, attention and perform pasting in strict accordance with the already spent technological methods.

In conclusion, publishing is a video with an example of shiveling photo wallpaper.

The fact is that they can be pasted into an absolutely any room and thereby bring something unusual and very interesting into it. However, that the result is pleased with the eye, you should know how to glue the photo wallpaper on a paper basis.

How to choose a photo wallpaper on a paper basis

Of course, the initial stage of this type of finishing work will be the choice of material, or rather, photo wallpaper. To this process must be quite responsible. Here, some factors for which you should pay attention to:

1. Picture. This is the taste of every person, the main thing that the basic colors harmonized with other shades of the interior.
2. The size. There may also be several options here. Wall murals can close the wall surface or completely or partially. Do not take the size of the size more than the area of \u200b\u200bthe wall.
3. Quality. Be sure to check the quality finishing material in front of you. It must be dense enough, and the drawing is clear and bright. On this type of wallpaper, it is better not to save to not make repairs in a year or two.
4. Number of details. It is better to check the number of parts and match the drawing in the store.

Features of choosing a picture on the photo

Of course, the choice of drawings on this type of wallpaper simply amazes. And therefore, when choosing this finishing material, some difficulties arise. In this regard, first should be declaring what color in the figure should be the main one. He, as a rule, must be harmoniously combined with other flowers prevailing in the room.
After that, you can proceed to the choice of the plot of the picture. For the bedroom it is best to choose something soothing. For a living room or a children's room, you can pick up brighter and fun drawings, but it is worth considering that aggressive coloring is better to avoid.
For a small room, it is better to choose a photo wallpaper, where cold colors prevail, thereby visually expanding it. And for more spacious - you can choose both cold and warm color shades.

What glue will need

Wall mural on a paper basis is practically no different from simple paper wallpaper. And therefore the glue can be used the same. but this question It is best to clarify the seller in the store. He will be able to advise that brand of adhesive substance, which is ideal for working precisely with this finishing material. It should be noted that it should not save on the glue.
It is necessary to breed the adhesive substance according to the instructions attached to it. At the same time, choose the dishes and immediately take care of a stick or a spoon that can be easily mixed in the process of operation.

What needs to be prepared

Before proceeding with the immediate wall decoration, you must prepare the following tools:

• finishing material (photo wallpaper);
• diluted adhesive in comfortable tank;
• brush so that you can apply glue;
• roulette or ruler;
• pencil;
• sandpaper;
• special roller made of rubber designed to remove air bubbles;
• stationery knife;
• level;
• putty knife.

Preparatory work: wall

First of all, it is necessary to prepare the surface of the wall on which the finishing material will be affected directly. And it is necessary to prepare it as carefully as before painting.
First of all, you should remove old wallpapers (if any). How to clean the wall from glue, paint, etc. If there are cracks, they must be sharpened. Then it is necessary to align the entire surface of the wall with putty and primed it. However, note that it will be possible to start the walls of the wall no earlier than it completely dry.
It is very important not to forget that if the drawing on your wallpaper is made in bright colors, the wall should be white without dark spots. This is very important, because such defects can then be displayed through the photo wallpaper. And this, no doubt spoil all the impression of the result.

If you are going to glue a photo wallpaper on a painted or smooth surface, it will first need to be handled by sandpaper. As a result, you should have a rough surface to which you can easily glue the wallpaper.

Preparatory work: photo wallpaper

The next step will be the preparation of the photo shutters themselves. What do you need to do? Free them from packaging and decompose on the floor surface, making a future drawing. At this stage of work, you should pay attention to the following:

1. The drawing does not just have to match the lines, but also in color shades. Unfortunately, there are cases when the color is a little lighter on one fragment, and on the other is darker. If you find, no matter how, defect, then it is best to go to the store and exchange data of the photo wallpaper to others. And it is worth choosing another drawing, as the entire party can be poor quality. Of course, you can stick wallpaper and with a defect. But it may turn out that this is a place that has a defect will constantly rush into the eyes and, in the end, you still decide to change them.
2. After that you need to check all the joints. They should all be coincided without exception. This condition is very important because otherwise The drawing can be a story. At the same time, it should be noted that most manufacturers manufacturing photographs do not imply the presence of joints. Most often, fragments are glued to the pearl, equal to a pair of millimeters. How to glorify the elements of photo wakes, you can learn from the instruction that is necessarily attached.

Preparatory work: markup

Now you will need to measure the length and width of each individual fragment, and make marking on the wall with a pencil, ruler and level. Thus, you must post all the places where it will be necessary to glue the elements of the finishing material.
The most important thing at this stage is to accommodate the left to the millimeter. top corner Or right as you will be more convenient. You can use a ruler, and plumb, and level. As a result, you should turn out an angle equal to 90⁰. And already from it you can spend straight lines on the sides.

How to apply glue

There is nothing complicated in applying glue. As a rule, they must first be primed the wall surface. However, this can not be done. On the floor it is best to unbelieve the old, but necessarily a clean rag, and it is already smeared with glue separate elements Wallpaper.
Then already prepared adhesive substance is applied directly to the surface of the wallpaper. It should be noted that the fragment should not be folded in half. And you will need to stick it to the wall no later than a couple of minutes. It is not worth staying longer, since the photo wallpapers on a paper basis will quickly scatter enough, and then with them it will be much harder to work.

Optimal indoor temperature during photographic windows

It is very important to consider that during the sticking of photo wallpapers in the room where the work is carried out, there must be a certain temperature. Namely from 20-25⁰ S.
In the case when the room temperature is higher than recommended, it is possible that the finishing material cracks. And if the room is too cold, then the fragments can turn off from the wall.
It is still very important to take into account the fact that in the room and during the finishing works and until complete drying of the wallpaper should not be the slightest draft. Footings and doors should be closed tightly.

Printing photo wallpaper on paper based on the wall

Start sticking fragments of photo wallpaper should be from the left corner located on top. After you glue it to the wall, take the rubber roller (clean, dry rag, sponge, etc.) and thoroughly smash the wallpaper. It is necessary to do it carefully so that they do not break. Try to remove all the formed air bubbles. At the same time, make sure that the wallpaper fragment does not get out beyond the markup boundaries.
After the first element is glued, you can go to the next one. And they should be the fragment that is located below the first. It is best to stick vertical stripes one by one by moving from top to bottom. Moreover, the upper element of the second and subsequent rows should be glued in such a way that the upper line of them is perfectly straight, and the side - exactly coincided with the pattern.
Watch all the elements to be glued exactly on the markup. Do not allow the formation of adhesion (if they are not provided) and the displacement of the pattern. If suddenly the leak droplets fall on facial Wallpaper, in any way, do not try their cloth. Take a clean dry sponge and gently flow them.

Elimination of defects

Having finished sticking wallpaper, you should estimate the final result. Special attention should be paid to air bubbles and fragments lagging behind the wall. How to fix such defects:

1. Try even during gluing fragments, thoroughly remove the resulting bubbles. For this, the rubber roller follows, not very pressing, move from the center to the edges. But it may turn out that bubbles will still remain. Then they must be carefully pierced with a needle, release air and press this place, for example, a clean sponge. If the wallpaper in this place will not stick, then take the syringe and, pushing the photo wallpaper, enter into this place a little adhesive substance, and then press again.
2. If the edges of the fragments are started, then you need to do the following. Bend a little edge and wake with a small amount of glue. It is necessary to do this very carefully, so that the adhesive substance does not fall on other elements of the photo wallpaper. Then make the edge and immediately remove the spoken glue.
3. May turn out so that separate fragment You glued crookedly. Then it should be gently tear off and glue again. This should be done with extreme caution, since this kind of wallpaper impregnated with glue is very easy to rush.

Advantages of photo wallpaper

Of course, as well as all other finishing materials have its advantages among the photographs. So, what advantages can be allocated:

1. With them relatively easy to work. So, unlike many simple wallpaper Wall murals, as a rule, consist of several small fragments. They are very comfortable to glue on the wall and with such work with ease, you can handle alone.
2. Huge selection. You can easily pick up not only right size photo wallpaper, but also drawing. The choice here is more than rich. And if suddenly it happens that you will not be able to find the desired drawing, it can always be ordered from specialists. They will be able to portray on the photo wallpaper, for example, you and your loved ones or your favorite. In general, the fact that your soul is pleased.
3. Low cost. As a rule, photo wallpapers on a paper basis are relatively inexpensive, which, of course, is a huge plus.
4. If you annoy old wallpapers, they are easily and just can be replaced with new ones.

Disadvantages of paper outbounds

Paper photo packages certainly have their drawbacks. And they must be known and take into account during finishing work:

1. If you spoil at least one fragment during sticking, then you most likely have to buy a new finishing material. Therefore, to spend finishing work It is necessary very neat.
2. This kind of wallpaper most of them has a small thickness. In this regard, they can easily break. Especially this problem is relevant after the fragment will be adopted, because paper base Quickly swells.
3. Wall mural is quite difficult to stick on the wall, where the floor and the ceiling are uneven. The fact is that the edges of such a finishing material must be perfectly smooth. As a result, the available room defects begin to rush into the eyes. You can glue them under the tilt, but here, most likely, you will have to resort to the help of specialists.
4. DISTRIBUTY. Paper photographs will not serve not very long. The fact is that only 2 or 3 years later, they can lose their original attractive appearance, and then you will again have to think about the repair.

Wall murals are able to radically change the appearance of your room. Hide some defects and make design unique. But this is only when this type of wallpaper will be selected and passed correctly.
