Everything I read says to paste the paper, not the wall. Pasting the wall could leave bubbles. Also some papers need paste, some need adhesive, it's crucial to know which is right for your paper.
It's better to leave the roll attached at the bottom, it's easier to work with, you are also better off using a laser or an old-fashioned plumb line for your straight edge, measuring from the corner is no good if the corner wall is crooked !!
@@charlesmorrison5859 I been doing it 35 years, the weight (of the roll) left on the floor until its stuck helps to keep the paper laying down well. I think they were learning as they were teaching, LOL.
This "might" be a Paste The Wall paper product. They use this type of wallpaper in the U.K. a lot. I didn't think Brewster made paste the wall wallpaper products....
You've made no mention of "sizing" the walls: creating an invisible barrier so that the wallboard doesn't absorb the paste. Also, you usually paste the paper, book it for a few minutes, and only paste the wall if the paper is particularly heavy, like anaglypta.
Um... most unpasted papers require that you apply the paste to the paper, not the wall. Once pasted, the paper lengths should be folded in on themselves and allowed to absorb moisture for at least 10 minutes. This is called "booking" and is an industry standard.
Hi Dorsey, Thank you for your comment! That is the method used to hang traditional wallpapers. We carry a variety of new paste-the-wall wallpapers, which allow people to paste the wall rather than the wallpaper. In any wallpaper hanging situation, we would recommend following the manufacturer's instructions printed on the packaging.
If you want to add more confidence to your customers then you should do this in a properly constructed room. The door swing in this room is wrong. The hinges should be on the side closest to the perpendicular wall and away from the light switch. If you don't know how to hang a door . . . . then should I trust you for advice on hanging wallpaper. (feel free to delete this post after you read it)

What happened to “ UNPASTE “ Watches Video: Apply paste to your wall. ME: wtf 🤔
“Unpasted” means the paper isn’t pre-pasted with adhesive, as some are.
imagine how much wallpaper and £ is wasted
