Do I need to size lining paper.
Hi All
I have a room in my house that has been lined with 1200 lining paper. I am now ready to paper over this with wallpaper. Do I need to size the lining paper before hand. If I do what is a good product to use i.e. watered down paste, PVA or buy a branded size. Cheers TG |

The message
from "T G" contains these words: Do I need to size the lining paper before hand. I do - just runny paste. It makes it grab less when you're applying the paper. -- Skipweasel Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. |

Sorry one more question
Does the size have to be done a days or two before papering (to allow to dry) or while I am papering. Cheers TG "T G" wrote in message ...

I start one end, then by the time I've got all the way round and had a cuppa it's OK to start papering. Works for me. -- Skipweasel Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. |
