How To Wallpaper Internal Corner

[@stevelester4188]

If you stare at that wallpaper long enough & focus “beyond” the actual surface, a secret message will appear. It says “Just paint the f*****g walls”

[@palutalu]

I'm just about to start wallpapering for the first time (gulp), and have a question about going round corners: Why do you put a plumb line and align the second piece to this and then cut of some waste in the very corner? Couldn't you use a laser line for your plumb line and then if you need to move the piece out from the corner by a bit to get a better pattern match in the corner, just move it out a bit, and then move the laser line out also and make sure it is plumb by making sure it aligns to the new position of the new laser projected plumb line? Also, thanks so much for the various videos - learning about how to mark with the scissors and then cut the crease has been a great help in putting up the lining paper. I started by using a blade, but I kept cutting into the gloss paint of the picture rail so the method you use has been much better.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. usually my first plumb line is spot on so no need to move.. tried lasers to slow find my plumb Bob never fails.. thanks

[@palutalu]

Thanks for the reply :)

[@shirl5554]

I like the way you tackle the corners - great technique and well worth remembering for future use as a DIY decorator. I have to say that despite your best effort and through no fault of your own, I couldn't live with the way the pattern runs out - it would have to come off and be replaced with something more forgiving.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. totally agree

I know it's quite off topic but do anyone know of a good site to watch new tv shows online ?

[@KCBRYAN_1525]

I done an nvq level 2 in painting and decorating 25 years ago.and all we did was go past the corner by 5mm.and with the same piece of paper left that you cut from marry it up as close to the corner.And that works a treat with match or not.And what happens in this case when you get to your next corner?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

What you just explained because where I started was the start point.. splitting paper when you come to corners is the norm.

[@KCBRYAN_1525]

@@PaintingandDecorating oh!! Ok I think you showing people doing a corner with the same piece of paper would be more beneficial as a diagram.because I think most people will get stuck on their next corner.I’m only doing lining paper this week or I could of gave my own take myself.I’m not hating on you bro that’s for sure I appreciate anyone trying to help people out

[@rsclague96]

Can’t find a video were you explain how to get an internal corner that isn’t a full width of wallpaper

[@jamesboylan45]

i think you are being hard on yourself. that's bloody good.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you...

[@argonaut6386]

So does the first piece of paper you put up still sit under the second slightly by the 3mm fold round? Many thanks and great video

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks, and yes slight overlap with first length.

[@colliedogjoy]

I got myself a laser level from Screwfix for £40.. Bloody brilliant! Also have started using a snap off knife and plastic spatula for ceiling/skirting cuts and any where scissors aren't the only way - much quicker and altogether better - especially ceilings and skirtings. Get yourself an Olfa knife and a pack of blades. Snap a new tip for every drop.

[@terrywalsh8355]

I’ve always used a 22” metal spatula and snap-off blades. You can’t really trust scissors for trimming.

[@scorpionnetherrealm8937]

Also as daft as it may seem a vid on how to get emulsion off clothes as your uniform looks like a daz advert bright white

[@antonygilbey7987]

Plumb line,,large spirt level or straight edge and spirit level much easier and faster.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Much easier than what?

[@antonygilbey7987]

Than a plumb line,well I find easier and quicker,everyone to there own,only been papering for 32 years , but he is still good at his trade.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

@@antonygilbey7987plum line is best never lies and fits in your pocket. Load faster. spirit level for horizontal. 32 years and still learning good on you.

[@RuberyB451]

The return you mentioned. I guess as long as your plumb is spot on, the return will take care of itself.

[@MarcGray1990]

Nice video.... do you have a video on the best way to finish an exterior papered corner? There’s so many in your video library now I can’t think!? Cheers matey!

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks , and no have not done a video but will sort one.

[@MarcGray1990]

Painting and Decorating cheers mate. You see so many different ways. Some look a bit rough around the edges. Literally but I know you do a top job all the time 👍

[@thomasdunleavy9775]

Hi fella, great channel, I have a customer That has bought paste the wall,, any advice, as never used it before, and is it still wise to use PVA to size the wall. Any advice would be helpful. Thank you

[@PaintingandDecorating]

So sorry for late reply so many comments. But I always size unless a shiny surface and then just sand to key. Always paste the paper no soacking time just hang it.

[@scorpionnetherrealm8937]

Have you done a vid on how to use a upvc on window sill internal thanks mate

[@number1bobo]

All I needed to know is if it's better to cut or fold corners...most of this video is watching him measure and make marks.

[@davidilijevski8942]

How much would u generally overlap into the corner 1/4 inch

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Depending on the pattern 5mm but better to have 2mm if possible for best pattern match.

[@JoeProDecor]

As little as possible

[@lawlor1000]

If you did this method in 2 opposite corners and began hanging from one plumb line it's almost a certainty that the last gap between paper and other corner would not be the width of the wallpaper. How would you go about this? Thanks for the vid and I hope this question makes sense ha

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes understand your question but that's not how we paper. Usually we start the window wall first in a room. Start on one side of the window which ever works out best for the paper. and work around the room in both directions usually meeting in the corner above the door.

[@lawlor1000]

@@PaintingandDecorating First off thanks for taking the time to reply. Im just about to do my first project and will use that method however if i work around the room when it comes to the final piece and say the gap is 400mm and the paper 500mm what do you do? I know im veering off the tutorial vid but any help would be very much appreciated

[@PaintingandDecorating]

@@lawlor1000 No problem.. measure the gap and cut a strip off a length and hang.

[@ratchriat1716]

Very tricky wall paper to work with but the finish is great enjoy the video.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks.

[@janemarson8671]

Thanks for tips looks good to me. Paper hard to work with. I agree about blades I cannot use them. Like the way you mastered it though. Great 📹

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks.

[@eddiebrockbank6517]

The pattern should always be viewed at eye level not at the bottom looking up.Dear god.

[@garethwhite6825]

That's some CRA-ZY paper!

[@PeteBeardsley]

It is pretty intense! lol

[@eddiebrockbank6517]

I hope he's not on day rate, I could have done the whole wall.

[@eddiebrockbank6517]

This is So So wrong. You should measure top middle and bottom first before using your plumb bob.

[@rebaz7256]

Good job

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you

[@MM0SDK]

Just one little tip for the video editing. See if you can make the intro volume the same as the video to save us headphone users or sleeping kids, especially with your relaxed style which i'm a big fan of. Great vid as always.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks. Yes having trouble getting the right editing app. Will sort it.

[@MM0SDK]

I think that's half the battle, finding what works best for you. I don't have much experience with editing myself, so not much help.

[@AC_Milan1899]

Do all KZbin tradesmen come from the North? Quality vid mate.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks... and may be.

[@PeteBeardsley]

Nah mate, tradesmen are in the South too, but CRAFTSMEN are all in the North!

[@anthonybradley9108]

Use a pencil with rubber on top it will then erase pencil line you draw . Good informative video

[@alexadorexa]

That background noise

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Never noticed that when I watched it back, but it was camera that we don't use now. Will be doing loads more videos on paper hanging and we now have better camera and sound.

[@SparrowSproulle]

I thought someone still had dial up internet

[@eddiebrockbank6517]

So so wrong
