Wallcovering construction process

- Wall inspection before construction

In principle, the wall must be flat, dry, firm and free of dirt. If the above conditions are not met, adverse symptoms such as mildew, warped edges and bottom pulling are likely to occur in the future.

- Correct treatment of various types of walls

The white covering base film can be selected to change the color of the wall, from dark to light, In order to meet the construction requirements of the wall.

2. Latex paint wall: stick it on the surface of the latex paint with tape paper, tear off the tape after 5 minutes, there is no latex paint film that falls off on the tape, that is, it meets the construction requirements, and the base film can be applied. If the latex paint wall is moldy, peeling, and peeling off, use a wallpaper spatula to level the surface of the wall, re-scrape the putty, and then brush the base film for construction.

3. Ordinary wall treatment: Under the irradiation of incandescent lamps, the wall is flat, dry, free of particles and pits, the color of the wall is basically the same, The internal and external corners are vertical and the edges can be closed. The construction can be started after the base film is painted and dried.

- Brush base film

Roll and brush the wall base film on the wall, and adjust the wallcovering glue according to the proportion. (Note: It is forbidden to add all the water at one time, otherwise there will be uneven rubber particles; it is best to use warm water in winter for the best effect)

- Wallcovering Posting

First put the wallcovering straight along the wall, the height of the upper side is the same as the height of the wall. At the lower end, the whole roll of wall cloth shall be padded on the upper end of the skirting line with articles. then roll out the wallcovering and scrape the wallcovering with a scraper, the order is from the inside to the side, and the paving shall be continued after the upper and lower parts are pasted.

If the inner angle is straight, the above roll-out construction can be continued without cutting. If the inner corner is not straight, it can be lapped and cut at the inner corner. If two people work together, they can measure the length from the internal corner to the internal corner, leaving a little room. After the wallcovering is cut, they can straighten both ends from top to bottom, scrape and paste from the inside to the side, and finally wipe off the excess glue with a clean wet towel.
