How to Paint Wallpaper: Save Time & Get it DONE!

Don't remove that old dingy wallpaper of yours if you don't need to! Paint over that wallpaper to give your room a whole new look and feel. It's easier than you would think. Follow these steps:

Materials:
Wallpaper paste/Glue
Caulking
Vinyl Spackling
150 Grit Sandpaper
TSP
Oil primer-Like Sherwin-Williams ProBlock
Latex primer

1.Look over the wallpaper to see what condition it's in. Make sure that there's no lifting, or tears. If there are use the wallpaper paste or glue to paste down lifting spots.

2.Next look at the seams of the wallpaper. Make sure any noticeable gaps you fill in with the Vinyl Spackling. This will give you a great finish when you apply the paint.

3. Caulk the ceiling, base boards and corners. This gives you a polished look, and if there's any lifting in the wallpaper, the caulking will hold it down, and will minimize the seams in the wallpaper.

4. Now sand and rough up the patches. If there's any sort of raised pattern or shean, scuff it up now.

5. Wipe down the walls with TSP, to make sure all dirt and dust is off.

6. Prime the walls with your Oil primer-Like Sherwin-Williams ProBlock. Make sure this layer gets to dry fully. Once it's dried, make sure that the paper is not bubling or lifting. If you'll have any problems, with your finish project, it'll be here in the priming stage.

7. The step you have been waiting for, painting! Go ahead and apply your paint. A flat, eggshell or satin works great to give you the best final project. You can even do a faux finish for a whole new looking room.
