How to remove bubbles on wallpaper after drying?

What to do in this case, we will tell in our article.

It often happens that after pasting on the wallpaper small ( and sometimes quite large) bubbles may appear. They may well occur immediately , or a little later , immediately after drying and glue , and the wallpaper itself. In the first case , you should not worry. Most wallpaper ( especially thin ones) may not completely smooth out dries But , if enough time has passed , the wallpaper is already completely dry , and the bubbles on them have not disappeared , then the situation will have to be corrected. This can be done in various ways. But , first of all , you need to find out for yourself the main reasons due to which these bubbles actually could appear.

Bubbles on wallpaper. Why do they appear after sticking? Main reasons

  1. It is possible that the glue you got is of poor quality , or it does not fit your type of wallpaper. So , for example , in its density, the glue may not match the wallpaper. It also happens that you bought the glue that you need , but prepared it incorrectly , that is, not according to the instructions. If you have bubbles on non-woven wallpaper , then it is quite possible that the gluing was done incorrectly. When sticking this type of wallpaper , you should not apply glue too intensively , both on the wallpaper itself and on the walls.
  2. Glue on any type of wallpaper , you need to apply only evenly. If you smeared the wallpaper with glue , to glue it until it dries. If they are kept for a long time with smeared glue , and not glued , then often the wallpaper just swells a lot. Later , of course , they still dry on the wall. But , in this case, the paper shrinks a lot , displacing the air , , we again get bubbles.
  3. Elementary drafts in the room , during the wallpapering procedure , can also “inflate” your wallpaper on the wall.
    How to remove such bubbles?

You can solve the problem differently, that is, for this you need various tools. It can be a plastic spatula or other tools. So , if bubbles appeared on vinyl wallpaper, then you need to remove them with a brush. If on non-woven , then with a rubber roller. A , if on simple, paper, then with a soft cloth. Should be done on the same day , when you hung the wallpaper. For this , take a tool, which suits your type of wallpaper, and with its help we expel from under them all with excess glue. Further , the surface is simply wiped dry (be sure to clean!) with a rag.

If the wallpaper has already dried up , and the bubbles on them have not disappeared , then you will need a medical syringe. It will need to be filled with wallpaper glue. Where a bubble has formed , the wallpaper is carefully cut ( cut should be very small), the air is released , and a needle is inserted there. Then , slowly , glue is poured into the syringe , and then this area is smoothed with a soft cloth.
