Is it OK to use lining paper on kitchen walls<\/h1>\n

Lining paper is used to give a good base to either emulsion or wallpaper over. As long as the preparation is done well and the lining paper is stuck well to the walls, then lining paper is OK to use on kitchen walls.<\/p>\n

Safety first<\/h2>\n

As with all wallpapers, lining paper shouldn’t be hung near naked flames or any ignition source, this is especially true in kitchens.<\/p>\n

How much lining paper do I need for my kitchen<\/h2>\n

It is easy to measure for lining paper, all you require is a tape measure, pencil or pen and a note pad.
\nMeasure the height and perimeter or the walls to be lined and make a note of these measurements. Then go to our wallpaper calculator and enter these measurements<\/a>, the calculator will then tell you how many rolls of lining paper you need to buy.<\/p>\n

What grade of lining paper should I use<\/h2>\n

Lining paper comes in different thicknesses, known as grades or gauge. Typically in most cases 1200 or 1400 gauge lining paper will be sufficient. However if your walls are in a really bad condition you could use a thicker lining paper such as a 2000 gauge lining paper. You can also buy specialist papers such as thermal liners, soundproofing liners and damp proof liners, but typically standard lining paper will suffice.<\/p>\n

Use a good quality paste and follow the manufactures instructions for mixing paste<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Do you need lining paper<\/h2>\n

Lining paper is not a miracle cure, and it isn’t an easy option that means you do not have to do any preparation, you do. Lining paper isn’t a substitute for good preparation, taking time to fill and sand walls could be a better option than hanging lining paper.<\/p>\n

Lining paper is ideal to give good sound base for wallpaper and emulsion but shouldn’t be thought of as a quick fix to smooth walls.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
