Awesome, thank you!
I’m a painter in the Netherlands and we do this a lot. We pull the paper through a machine that apply paste to the paper. It’s way faster and you get a nice even coat. But the guys that applying it are two amazing craftsman when almost don’t see the seems 👐

Yes michiel, I know the Machine you’re talking about I think for this small job it’s not worth it but for hanging 40 double rows it might be worth investing in in one. Thanks for the kind words take care Chris
Nice one Chris. Another A and E Pro 👍👍👍

You need it on those tables, the metal strip is proud and can easily damage the paper.
thanks
Great video guys. I am very good at wallpaper hanging (Self Taught), these pro tips were great for me to watch. Thank you. My standards are a lot better than a lot of the tradesmen i have had working in my houses. (May have just been unlucky with them). Keep up the good work. More of these instructional videos please. Respect to A&E for great content quality.

i think you should have explained what 'cross lining' is. I had no idea what it was until your video, but I googled it. Never realised that it's usually used like an 'underlay' for wallpaper.

I bet most of the work went in the day before prepping the walls.... 90% of a job is prep. Great to see craftsmen, decorators should be the best payed on a job,but never are. 👍🏻

Hi. Do you leave a small gap between the edges of the sheets of paper. Ive put it up before with little or no gap and when painted the edges seemed to expand and became very noticeable ?

Hi RR , No we butt joint all lining paper, if you soak the lining paper for the correct time and size the walls correctly you shouldn’t have a problem. Hope that helps cheers Chris

Does the paper not tear when trimming it to length into the corners? I commonly have this issue as the paper is wet with paste so doesnt take the stanley well

If just painting over is there any benefit to hanging horizontal vs vertical?
@chrisfoster5098

Good question I would say yes because if you paint over it after hanging then in a few years you decide to paper the room you will not have to strip it hope that helps Chris

Best to hang vertical when painting over, if you hang horizontal, the seams start to open up because of gravity.
Hey. Why didn’t you just crossline all the way across that wall rather than having to add the two extra pieces?
Why didn’t you line into the corner ??

Hi bud, it was a very long wall which our scaffold wasn't long enough for. There was a door at either end of the room... so we went to the two frames on the end and then did the infills as you see in the video. Take care 👍
You shouldn't cross line if you're going to paint it because the seams will eventually open because of gravity. Cross line when papering over and vertical when painting over.
Probably quicker to just skim it
Paste is obsolete ready is the best,and you don't need a 9inch roller,fg amateurs .
