Troubleshooting

Air bubbles appear after applying the paper.

Gently smooth out the bubbles with a smoothing brush or roller, working from the center outwards. Use a pin to release any stubborn air pockets, then smooth the paper flat.

Ensure the seams are butted tightly together during application. You may also lightly sand the seams after the lining paper has dried, before painting.
