Can I ask. A decorator has just painted my walls and the paint is peeling the next day! Has he painted it too early do you 🤔

[@Inexteriors]

@@cherylwicks8850 Hi, what has he painted ie, lining paper or new plaster or bare walls.

[@cherylwicks8850]

He put up lining paper, then filler...he then painted it...the next day now he's gone, the paint is peeling in certain places and paper looks like it's coming unstuck

[@Inexteriors]

@Cheryl Wicks Were is the paint peeling, and were is the paper coming unstuck. was it lined and painted in the same day.

Thank you for the video! Lining old doors to hide a multitude of dents and scrapes. I'm a complete novice with wallpaper and your videos have been very informative and easy to follow. First door is looking 100% better. Turned on notifications and subbed. Together we will make this home beautiful 😍 ❤

Thanks for great advice, i would only add to it to prime patched joints first before painting to make sure paint will stick to it. Otherwise paint my peal off... I learned hard way

[@Inexteriors]

@holis111. Thankyou.

[@gemma2920]

Can I use any filler (ready made)to fill the gaps or best to use mixable filled?

[@Inexteriors]

just make sure the filler is easy to sand.

Good job mate but why didn't you hang the wallpaper vertically?

[@Inexteriors]

Thankyou vert much,It's how I was taught, if i was papering over the lining paper that's how you do it, if you are painting then it doesn't really matter to be honest.

I've had bubbles when painting lining paper that didn't go away, any ideas? Thank you for your video 👌

[@Inexteriors]

Thankyou for watching. Try putting a tiny hole in the bubble and inject some paste with a medicine seringe, smooth it out, then fill hole, sand, then paint.

[@justinstuart8382]

Any reason the paper is hung horizontal and not vertical? Thanks

[@Inexteriors]

The reason for hanging lining paper horizontally, is to guarantee that the seams of the lining paper and seams of the wallpaper don't coincide with each other. When painting i guess it doesent really mater, it is just how i was taught thats all.

When you fill the joints in, and paint over lining . Is it easy to remove the painted lining after?

[@Inexteriors]

@Brou Adje . Over the years i can say the lining paper that i have striped, some i have had a little battle with and other not so much of a battle, if i remember the lining paper i used on this job was an easy peel lining paper.

[@jordanb3822]

Do you fill the gap in the corners of the room where the lining paper meets?

[@Inexteriors]

you can run some caulk down it if you want or if there is a bad gap, but if cut tidy then no need to. To be honest i used to caulk them all the time.

[@paulwilson1555]

To stop the filler grinning / showing through, would it be best to spot prime those areas?

[@Inexteriors]

2 coats of emulsion is fine.

[@badbwoy3000]

Hello great work, just wondering do you butt the lining paper in the corners.

[@alexthomson7465]

Would you ever use hardstop filler?

[@Inexteriors]

if was puting it on over a first coat, and i was only giving it 1 more coat i would, but buy filling before you paint its going to have 2 coats on top of the filler, just fill cleanly then no need to sand lots.

[@vincentamulligan]

Is there any benefit or difference to filling before 1st coat? Or is it the same as filing after the 1st coat?

[@Inexteriors]

I just tried it one day and it worked lol, it saves spoting up the filler before 2nd coat.

[@alexthomson7465]

Blinding job! I made the mistake if butting my joints up close, using a hardstop and then painted and the joints have risen against each other and are fully visible. 😠 What paper did you use? Cheers

Great work, so can’t you just paint over the gaps?

[@Inexteriors]

Thankyou very much.You can if you want lol. But it is a good idea to try and hide the joints nothing is perfect, its just about trying your best.

[@Lloyd1885]

I would paint ot first, then fill, water in the wet filler can undermine the paste and cause bubbling, no rosh of the sandpaper scratching the lining then....or use lightweight filler as it barely contains any water, no sanding needed. Once filled, touch up with a rad roller, then second coat the whole wall

[@Inexteriors]

To be honest i did it that way for years then 1 day i did it this way and it turned out fine, Another change i made recently was to use ready mixed paste instead of mixed paste.

[@Lloyd1885]

Hi Steve. Thank you for your video. Can you tell me please why you applying your lining paper horizontally. I was going to put it like a normal wallpaper. If I apply vertically then the job will be not perfect?

[@Inexteriors]

@Violetta TAYLOR . You can hang it vertical or horizontal when painting the lining paper, if you are wallpapering over the lining paper then you hang it horizontal. I just saw it hang horizontal for both when i was learning.

[@Wiliuz]

Great video. Thanks m8

[@Inexteriors]

@Vilius uk .Thankyou very much.

[@bassbytes]

Very good. I’m going to paint my living room which has very visible slightly lifted seams in the lining paper. Would I need to try lifting and resticking the seams before filling over them like you have here ?

[@Inexteriors]

@bassbytes . Yes, use solvite over lap adhesive to stick it back, also wet joint a little and leave to soak for a couple mins to soften the joints before sticking.

[@bassbytes]

@@Inexteriors great thanks. One other question, is a multi purpose filler such as Ronseal filler ok to use instead of Easifill 60 if I don’t want the hassle of making the mix ?

[@Inexteriors]

@bassbytes . Make sure its a fine surface filler, also fill cleanly so its easier to sand.

[@clivesquire6463]

loved the video mate you got a sub from me thanks for the info Steven con you tell me why when i have painted my walls or lining paper horrible bubbles come up as the paper is wet but mostly all go when it dries thanks buddy stay safe.

[@Inexteriors]

@Clive Squire . Its just what happens, when you think about it you use water to help strip wallpaper, emulsion is water based, its scary when it happens but like you said it dries back fine. Thankyou for your support bud.

[@kevinmorse8814]

👍, I would have hung the lining paper vertical and butted the Joints like a wallpaper which is then ready for a couple of coats of paint. Hanging horizontal is usually followed by a finish paper over the top of the lining paper.

[@Inexteriors]

We all do things differently bud. vertical or horizontal i dont think it matters, it was the way i was taught thats all.

[@Lloyd1885]

​@@Inexteriorsagree, its whatever os easier sometimes, I'd rather put 4 bits horizontal along a long wall than 12 bits vertically...or 3 bits vertically on a high wall than 8 bits horizontally...horses for courses, staggering the joints so they dont end up in the same place as a finish paper is easy enough to plan

Hi mate. I have done this but the filler is showing through the paint still ! I am using lighter paint. What should I do ?

paint the bits that are showing through let it dry then paint wall again, are you using a matt or vinyl silk finish.

@@Inexteriors will do mate! I used a flexible filler that’s white unlike what I’ve used before. I’m using matt paint. I did put some peal stop on it to before to seal and prime it . That will teach me for being lazy and not mixing the easy fill! 😂

Do you recommend using a primer or is there no need. Two coats should be enough? Also when do u need to put pva as I see.conflicting info online

2 coats is fine over the filler. Its only very fine filled its not like its new plaster that needs a mist coat of thinned down emulsion or a thinned down coat of pva. You do what you feel works for you my freind.

[@gaws1234567890]

Not having a go but why don’t you butt joints? What do you do if you’re hanging a pattern? You can fill that! If you have to fill, it’s either a poor hanging job or a very uneven problem area. Use 1kg ready mixed with some paint (hard stop) I always butt joints with a seam roller so haven’t needed to fill joints in years, always use paste the wall wallrock lining ( quicker to hang by miles, no shrinking so no gaps to fill). Also I never ever use powder paste, just use ready mixed, even consistency, the problems I had using packet paste (little too much water and the paper expands too much then butted subsequent drops don’t stick as the paper shrinks back, hence gaps. Use in between coats sandpaper otherwise you will wreck the paper or not sand down correctly.

[@Inexteriors]

I have never seen paste the wall lining paper, i will give it a go, ,i used to fill inbetween coats, then 1 day i filled it before i painted and it worked, i have done it that way ever since, always good to learn different things.
