Default bubbles in the lining paper after i put the wallpaper up

can anyone help me with this? I have hung some wallpaper over the customers exsisting lining paper, which had been painted a couple of times. The bubbles that are coming up and in the lining paper beneath not the wallpaper i have just hung. Its fabric effect paper so i dont want to seringe if possible. Will these go down with time? I ie: a few days or will it take longer or less? ?

The lining paper seemed to be sound. (Painted twice before hand.)

I hung the new wallpaper over the top

Air bubbles came up in the lining paper. Not the new wallpaper
(as I cant chase them out.)

Will these go down??


It sounds like the lining paper just got wet. You should know by now.
If you had used too much or too thick a mix of adhesive, you might have
had a slightly different problem. The method of eradication is similar
though.

Roll or brush it out.

How long did you wait between pasting the paper and hanging it? A good
few minutes is the ideal. The damp paper/fabric, stretches. When it
dries it pulls at tension. The lining paper too, may have been
misapplied in such a manner, wetting with paste and putting each
segment straight on the wall.

Now you have wet it again and it may have stretched. I have no idea
what happens next. Do tell.
