Corner alignment
So, the smooth surface of the walls is completely pasted with wallpaper, it came to the corners directly. Preliminary, we must carefully examine them. If there are irregularities, the corners should be leveled with a thorough shpaklevaniem and wait until the putty completely dry to clean the entire surface of the corner with fine sandpaper. The wall in such places should be perfectly smooth, otherwise, the canvas can become unstuck. After this, it is recommended that the corners, like all walls, be treated with a primer. We can assume that the answer to the first part of the question is how correctly to glue the corners with the corners, the answer is found.
Application of glue
Before you can glue the wallpaper in the corners, they must be carefully glazed with the adhesive throughout the entire height. After all, it is in these places that the wall covering is often peeled off. This is done with a roller. And where it does not reach, a brush is used.
Pasting of the corners of the corners
Specialists-finishers do not recommend gluing whole corners in the corners, even in those cases when they are visually perfectly straight. This is explained by the fact that there is a high probability of formation in these places of distortions( as a result - the next sheet will not dock), and after drying, creases may form here. Therefore, before pasting the wallpaper of the corners, they must be cut in such a way that the side of the canvas passes 50 mm to the next wall. In the photo you can see how to glue the wallpaper in the inner and outer corners.
An unpleasant surprise for beginners in the decoration of premises can be the curvature of the corners in the room. With the naked eye, this defect is not always noticeable. Therefore, before, how to glue corners with nonwoven or simple wallpaper, it is necessary to measure their plumb line or use the building level. If the "blockage" on them is quite appreciable, it is recommended to resort to the method of "cutting" the wallpaper in these places. This method of gluing wallpaper in the corners is required when working with thick wall coverings( for example, vinyl).
All the initial operations of this method are similar to the first case. The cloth is crossed by 50 mm per corner on the adjacent wall, and the second sheet of wallpaper is glued to this overlap. After this, directly in the middle of the corner, a special wallpaper knife is used, under the ruler, from the top down, a vertical cut through two layers of wallpaper.
It should be noted that during this operation the ruler should be tightly pressed and not moved from the place. Otherwise, the cut along the canvases can go to the side. Specialists recommend using a long metal ruler for such cases, which has a high stiffness, in comparison with a plastic or wooden analog.
