One method is to use dabs of plaster on the wall and to push the board
onto them.
I thought that works onto brick - but the walls have painted paper.
No. Paper would have to come off.
I believe that's a full circle then.
I didn't paint over the gas tap....
Cutting it short, it seems as though the options are
- paper off
- paper and plaster off
- battens screwed to wall and plasterboard.
Or just swamp the whole thing in pva and skim. I wouldn't want to lose
that much space with battens and PB, not to mention all the faffing
about round doors and windows
PVA and skim over painted wallpaper - serious?
He might be, but ignore it.
