You could, but you’ll more than likely be able to see the areas you removed the paper still. In order to get back to where you started, you’ll probably have to prime, then skim coat the areas you removed the paper, and then prime it again. Not an enjoyable predicament to be in- but if you’ve decided removing the rest is not an option, you could give this a shot. Best of luck 👍

I appreciate you getting right to the point in your video and not wasting my time by dragging on and on like so many do nowadays.
@RefreshHomeImprovements Жыл бұрын
Thanks for the kind words! We always find it interesting to hear how many different ways there are to solve a problem. In response to your question, we’re not very familiar with foil wallpaper- but theoretically it should work on any wallpaper. The solvent based primer essentially gives you a new canvas to work with (‘sealing’ the wallpaper and providing a good bonding surface for new paint). Just remember that painting over it will not get rid of any bumps/seams/imperfections in the wallpaper. The easiest way to know for sure is to test it on a small area and see for yourself👍

If you follow the steps in this video, your wallpaper wont being peeling any faster than it would on its own. HOWEVER, if you’re going to go through all that effort to texture, prime and paint your wallpaper, we’d ask, would it really be that much harder to just remove it? When in doubt you’re always better to remove it first. If you can’t, or simply dont want to invest the time, seal the wallpaper with a solvent based primer and it essentially becomes a blank canvas (albeit a wallpapered canvas 😂).

I am thinking of painting over the wallpaper in my son's room. The wallpaper only goes up half the wall from the floor with a border around it at the top. There is a lip around the top and bottom of the border. It is in good shape and very stuck on the wall. Do you think joint compound will leave too much of a hump if I try to mud over the top and bottom of the border seam (border is around 6" wide)? You can hardly feel the seams if running your hand around the wall, but the border seams are quite pronounced. Also, would I just prime the part of the wall that has wallpaper or the whole wall which is painted on top? Steps would be prime (oil based) , repair holes, mud seams, sand and then paint right? Any advice you can give me would be appreciated. The wallpaper is in good shape and is very glued to the wall.
@RefreshHomeImprovements2 жыл бұрын
Sounds like you’ve got the gist of it 👍. I would definitely try to scrape the seam after you’ve primed it (as I’ve done in this video) to remove as much of the lip as you can. After that it’s just a matter of feathering out the mud far enough so that the ‘hump’ becomes a longer raised section that is undetectable to the eye. It’s essentially the same thing as taping a butt joint in drywall. There will technically always be a raised area because of the tape, but if you feather it out far enough, you’ll never see it. I would mention that there is a limit to how big of a hump you can disguise though. So if your border is very pronounced you might try removing that section instead of painting over it. You need to decide which task you’d rather spend time doing- removing wallpaper or priming and mudding wallpaper seams. Both are laborious, but if you’re going to spend a lot of time hiding seams, it’s worth considering just removing the wallpaper instead. Of the two methods, you’ll likely get better results with removing the wallpaper altogether (but we know that sucks 😞). As for the section without wallpaper, we’d say you only need to prime it if the color change will be drastic and the priming stage gets you closer to your final color choice 👍
@lisajarvis1312 жыл бұрын

I am the worst painter ever! I tried to paint with a roller and brush, and it came out blotchy, then I tried to paint with a textured roller. That didn't work, now Ihave painted the bathroom door blue and I am putting white blotches on it. So now that it is a design, I have to paint the wallpaper. I forgot I am suppose to use primer..

I recently moved into a university dorm and they have Wallpapers which are terrible and dirty I wanted to paint them but they all say to me that if I do it they will come off...

It wont if you follow the steps in this video (assuming it’s not falling off already)👍 The key is using a solvent based primer (not water based).

There’s nothing to see. It just looks like the rest of the dark walls👍

It looks good because you used a dark color to hide everything. As a professional contractor I don’t recommend doing this 😂

You bring up a very good point 👍. We typically dont recommend doing this either (as stated in the video)- we just wanted to point out that you CAN do it (and if you’re going to, how to give you the best chance at success). Thanks for the input

The primer is a shellac, its HARSH on your eyes, nose, everything! You need a better mask for sure!
