Wallpapering

[Bubblecraft]

Is it just me or does everyone else that papers hate the wait for paper to soak in the adhesive (6 to 10min per strip)? I can't have any more coffee's. I'll burst!

I've tried before doing a few strips at a time but generally ends up in disaster as it drys just too fast. I'm sure there's a knack to it that I ain't mastered yet

Gus, maybe you should get customers to buy the "paste the wall" options of wallpaper. I couldn't be doing with the mixing, soaking, delicately holding the paper whilst climbing a ladder, before precariously trying to get the whole lot to stick to the wall. :yesnod:

That paste on the wall stuff is terrible. I stay well clear from it! Used it before, never would again unless that's what the customer has bought. I buy all the materials myself apart from the wallpaper. Much the same as tiling. I'll choose everything myself bar the tiles
