How to choose wallpaper?

Should look at the symbols on the back because they provide information on the coating

wallpaper-artFor decades, the wallpaper was the reference coating to decorate the walls in many of the homes. Now this element has emerged as a trend, although the choice of materials and the variety of placement techniques differ from the primitive. Therefore, before purchasing a wallpaper, not just look at the design, it is necessary to consider other aspects.

Types of paper

The range of wallpapers is extensive. There are a wide variety of textures, colors and designs that fall into three basic categories:
  • Embossing. It is the most traditional. It consists of a single layer of paper on which the print or record design. In general, it is placed cellulose glue is applied on the coating and has a moderate resistance to light. It is an appropriate role for decorating bedrooms or rooms that do not suffer too much traffic.
  • Flocking. They are embossed papers. Some imitate the texture of velvet and suede, while others are covered with cork or foils. Are thicker and hold up better over time. Flocked papers are suitable for any space.
  • Vinyl. Are coated with a layer of vinyl printed. This plastic makes them a durable and waterproof wallpaper. Another novelty is that most of the papers are marketed preencolados vinyl. For placement, simply wet the back. By resisting contact with the waterAre suitable for coating the walls of kitchens and bathrooms.
Coating characteristics

At the time of choosing the wallpaper, and select the design or pattern should focus on the characteristics of the coating. In the back of the paper are different symbols that provide all the information needed to describe their main attributes. NF legislation regulates and ensures the reliability of the particular specified.
Vinyl papers are preencolados, simply wet the back to place
The parameters measured are the strength of the paper to light, with a scale ranging from "satisfactory" to "excellent" mode remove the coating (dry, wet or peelable) how to apply the adhesive which establishes the role (on the coating applied to the surface or pre-glued) and the type of union that requires placement of the sheets of paper. This can be free, straight, strips sauteed or reverse.

How do you clean?

coating-wallpaper
Another symbol that is printed on the coating specifies whether or not it is possible to wash the paper and how to do. The most common categories are "washable" and "washable and can be brushed". In the former case, the lining supports the stains are removed with a cloth dampened with soapy water, although it is useful to know that fat is indelible and permanent if not treated early. These spots must be cleaned immediately and not to postpone the task.

A paper "washable and can be brushed" indicates that it is possible to clean water-based stains that are placed near radiators and windows with a soft brush and a mild detergent, without altering the pattern or color of paper .

Decorate the walls with synthetic textiles

Coatings "nonwoven" are easier to install than wallpaper and its resistance to external agents is greater

non-woven-art
There are murals and fabrics wallpaper. The coatings of type "nonwoven" are made from synthetic textiles such as polypropylene and polyester. Home decorating walls through a network of fibers which, instead of woven are joined by mechanical, thermal or chemical. Compared with textile and wallpaper, the main advantages of the "non-woven" are simpler placement, a high resistance to external agents (water, stains, light ...) and how easily retire Dry.

Features

Unlike classical wallpapers, which require glue to place the coating on the installation of the "non-woven" glue is applied on the wall. It makes it easier because the process is suppressed collage of the sheets and the waiting time until the adhesive penetrates into the paper. The "non-woven" coatings are very stable. Its shape and dimensions hardly vary when contact tail. This feature reduces the errors that result from a miscalculation of the spaces.

To attach "nonwoven" glue is applied on the wall
It is a material with high mechanical strength, superior to the paper, but at the same time, the density and weight are low. It is essential to properly prepare the stand, because if the tone is very light coating is likely to show through the defects Wall. This is prevented by sealing holes and chips, then any irregularities in the surface polish.

Placement

Advance planning ensures optimum finish. First, you have to draw vertical lines with a plumb line to mark the exact position of the strips in the wall. Then glue the parts of the wall as the sheets are placed. It is recommended to begin upper adhere "nonwoven" and continue downwards.

To strengthen the grip of the strips, you must press the surface with a wallpaper brush. If this step is detected bubbles or wrinkles, withdraw completely tender. The consistency of the glue can rectify and correct the incorrect positions of the strips.


Special queue

The "non-woven" stick to the wall with a specific queue. Methylcellulose is an adhesive reinforced with various resins. Some products have in their composition with fungicide to prevent mold or mildew from forming in the specifications or in the media itself.

It is essential to use this type of glue, as it facilitates the process of peeling the dry coating. Its most common form is the granulate. For its development, we must pour the powder in water and mix continuously until thickened. We recommend leaving the mixture to stand for 30 minutes before using.
