Step -by -step technology of wall decoration with wallpaper of Lininkrust:
First of all, skirting boards, platbands, switches and sockets are removed.
The previous wall coating is removed, cleaned, all the remaining particles are washed off. The wall is treated with an antiseptic and applied to cracks and uneven areas of the starting putty.

Then you can apply the finish putty, let it dry, clean and primer.
The rolled wallpaper of the linkerist cut the desired sizes, while you need to take into account the selection of the drawing. Further, these sheets are immersed for ten minutes into water with a temperature of 60 degrees. Then put one on the other with a facial coating up. After removing excess water, you need to leave the sheets in this position for ten hours so that they soften. This is done to prevent cracks. The edges of the material after shrinkage are cut. When using the wallpaper of the lininkrust on a fabric basis, the soaking stage is lowered.
The gluing of the material is carried out. Various adhesive substances can be used, but professionals advise perchlorvinyl glue. It is applied to the sheet, folded in half, and left for ten minutes. Before gluing, the wall is also coated with glue. Be sure to flatter the canvas. If you have to glue the canvas in the corners, then this joint is fixed by the rail for a couple of days.
When gluing, it is worth monitoring the temperature regime, its lower feature should not fall below 15 degrees above zero.
Linkrust’s canvas drying out seven days when avoiding a draft and heating the room.
Then the skirting boards and platbands are installed, and you can start painting.
