You are really quick and very professional now I've learnt from you. Love your style. Thanks for your video

Patience is a virtue bestowed on few mate. Awkward job that one, not to mention the actual paper itself. You executed it very well. Well done pal. Great work. 👍🏻👍🏻

Painting and Decorating excellent work as usual. I have a problem could you help. I painted the walls in my hallway and there are small blisters coming through the paint. Your help is much appreciated. Tony Ere,

Sorry, Tony missed this comment. If this still helps leave it to dry and see what happens it may sit back when dry. If not you have to scrape off the bubbles then wash in case its paste or some other contaminant on the wall. Then fill using a hard-stop filler then paint. Sorry for the late reply

Good traditional decorator and nice work mate

Good job Mr. P and D, I allways recommend they get a radiator shelf wich just slot down the back and it hides what is below it, you can get them fairly cheap I got white one's for my flat they have a decent satin finish on them as well

thank you for the video! good tips for beginners, very helpful :)

I usea long flexible fibre glass roller that I bought years ago with a rubber sleave,it works great.

Thanks loads. I’m not scared of doing the radiator anymore and hubby wii be there to hold stuff

A good demo, I find with a difficult pattern if you lay the paper face up on the board and pick a pattern match be it a flower or a line if you fold the flower point to the next flower in the repeat and make a light crease on the opposite where the crease mark is is the pattern match

that is very tricky but looks nice and neat enjoy the video.

Whot ive done with rads in the past the middle piece put your plumb bob wieght in the fold at the bottom of the middle piece and the weight will drop down

Or just drop the rad it’s easy on a small one like that !

try folding the bottom up and put a few 2 pence pieces along to help it drop down the back, then use a rad roller......

Sorry for the late reply Axus Decor Stainless Steel Wallpaper Scissors that's what am using, but there is loads of decorators scissors. So best to find some that fit your hand the best.

Different batch numbers pal!

Great work btw .... Would it be easier to paste the wall at the radiator level rather than the paper and also don’t you do two cuts either side of the brackets or are you not really bothered about the in trimmed paper round the brackets

Thank you.. the paper needs to soak first.. and the paper was cut so it fitted over the brackets just enough.. the plaster was really bad because it had been skimmed with the rad on the wall... stupid like.

The problem with papering round the conduit is heat will over a short period of time give a rippled corner effect due to the expansion and movement of the plastic, good video tho

Thanks It all depends on how hard you work really. And if you do exterior work that all depends on the weather. Best not doing large exteriors or too many small ones on your own. Stick to interior work dry. So the is no set wage and that's the good part.

That radiator would of lifted off with the plastic piping enough to lean forward I've done it many of time's

wowzer

You could just take the heater off of the wall...

The switch socket part seemed overly complicated.... Why not take if off completely leaving a hole in the wall, put wallpaper over it as if it was not there, cut out a hole and put the switches back on ?

Wallpaper behind radiators is bad as the heat will loosen up the adhesive and it become loose. Wallpapers are being applied on one part of the walls these days. Painting is better than wallpaper.

The next day after papering, I found I had gaps all the way down my joins. What would be the cause of that pls?

@PaintingandDecorating

6 жыл бұрын

Did you put your heating on after papering or was it a very hot room? Sometimes this can cause the paper to shrink rather than drying naturally. Or what you may notice is that the joins touch every 12" with gaps this is down to the paper being shrink-wrapped at the factory.

Painting and Decorating , the rooms were small therapy rooms so quite warm naturally. Paper was a thick heavy embossed type. Thinking about it again, I may have over stretched it while smoothing up and down, another of your videos recommends smoothing left-right. Great videos, thanks for posting. Glad to have found you now.

@PaintingandDecorating

Yes, smooth over on width, not the length side to side. But this would not cause your joint gap it would cause your pattern not to match.

@Stoddy2k

Roger S Did you Size the wall before hanging your paper. If you do not size the walls the paper tends to dry quicker and shrink more , Hence the gaps.

@PaintingandDecorating

6 жыл бұрын

This would only really matter on new plaster, and size helps the paper grip with it being a glue. It helps seal the plasters to stop the porosity. We do not use size anymore due to having to mix with boiling water and it stinks. PVA does the same. But joint gaps have other reasons this is a rare occurrence if all joints leave gaps when drying.

Why not just take the rad off the wall? Its a 5 minute job if you don't count the time it takes to drain the rad.
