The infusion time for the mixture of liquid wallpaper takes more than 8 hours and during this time you can have time to prepare the walls in the room.
Step No. 1. Preparing liquid wallpaper.
The contents of the package are poured into a plastic container and filled with warm water (40-50 degrees). The mixture is thoroughly mixed and left to infuse for the time specified in the instructions (about 8 hours). Each portion of wallpaper is prepared separately.
Step No. 2. Surface preparation.
The old covering is removed from the walls and ceiling. The surfaces are thoroughly cleaned, large irregularities are puttied, metal objects are removed or painted over with alkyd paint. Cleaned surfaces are primed with a mixture based on quartz sand.This primer creates a rough surface and excellent adhesion of liquid wallpaper to surfaces. The quartz primer is applied with a roller. Hard-to-reach places are painted with a brush.
Step No. 3. Applying liquid wallpaper.
Before applying liquid wallpaper, the prepared mixture is thoroughly mixed.
It is better to start applying the mixture from the corners. First, the internal and external corners are made with a plastic (or foam) board, then the mixture is applied to the remaining area. The board is held at an angle of 10-15 degrees. The thickness of the applied layer should not exceed 1-2 millimeters.
Drying time for surfaces is 24-48 hours depending on the room temperature. Temperatures above 25 degrees and the presence of a draft significantly speed up the drying process of walls and ceilings.
