How to Hang Lining Paper - Crosslining 

Hope all goes well for you 😊

Glad I could help 😊

That is brilliant news Lee, glad you are finding the videos helpful. More wallpapering videos in the pipeline 😊

Great comment. I'm exactly the same re visually learning. I love RU-vid for this reason.

Thank you for the kind comment, glad you found the video helpful.

Good stuff Kathy, I am sure you will find this process helpful 😊

Thank you 😊

You're welcome 😊

It doesn’t need to be perfectly level. Think about it. Wallpaper is going over it.

After the lockdown is over I will try and find out for you John. Glad you found it helpful 😊

Hi Glenn, just wrap the paper back around the other way and rub off just the same with the abrasive paper and wipe off the paste from the lining paper with a damp sponge. Just make sure you only use the abrasive paper up and down and all should be fine 😊

You could try the following Billy assuming it is standard width 53cm: 1, Measure 50cm down from the ceiling and do a pencil mark. 2. From this mark use a spirit level to draw a horizontal line across the wall. 3. Continue the line onto the adjacent wall. 4. Apply ready mixed (tub adhesive) to the first wall to a level just below the line. You can use a roller to do this. 5. Apply the wallpaper with the edge against the line. 6. Trim so it continues around the adjacent wall approximately 5mm. 7. Using a snap off blade knife and wallpaper smoothing tool or caulking tool trim the wallpaper along the ceiling to remove the overhang. 8. Continue applying the wallpaper to complete the first wall. 9. Do the same on the adjacent wall trimming each peace neatly at both ends. Make sure each piece goes over the 5mm overlap and trim neatly into the corner. 10. Wipe all surfaces with clean water and have a cup of tea. I hope that helps.😊

Thanks Aubrey

Lining paper is excellent at covering minor imperfections in a wall or ceiling surface. Anything worse will require a skim coat. We also apply a reinforced lining paper called non-woven on surfaces which are susceptible to movement causing cracks. Most of the labels on patterned wallpaper over here recommend the use of lining paper to provide a surface of even porosity which minimises the risk of many paperhanging defects. It is quite cheap and comes in single, double and quad rolls. Great if you have children for colouring and painting on 😃

albert robinson it’s people like you with your highly unnecessarily negatively critical remarks that never add to the good but keep the bad up and running. I take it you suffer from a huge ego that is very proud.

I like both your reply and your own videos , Spencer, as I also find comments like the one you comment on unneccesarily critical and negative, but when I have commented to that effect myself the poster usually replies back to me with a nasty comment. I would like it if people on here, if they have to disagree with something, had the good grace to do it in a polite and respectful way, but hey - pigs might fly, and those with those huge egos usually suffer from something else that might be rather small. @@spencercolgan

albert robinson, you’re an uncharitable person. There’s nothing I can say to convince you.

Yes you can charlotte 😊
