GETTING TO KNOW VINYL WALLPAPER

VINYL WALLPAPER: Many types of wallpaper are available as a wallcovering for your home including fabric, embossed, foil, grass cloth and vinyl.

Most wallpaper produced is vinyl.

This type of wall covering carries some advantages over other types.

Material

Vinyl wallpaper is made with paper that is treated with vinyl, a chemical made from ethylene, which is derived from natural gas.

Location

Because its ethylene coating makes it resistant to moisture, vinyl wallpaper is a popular choice for kitchens and bathrooms.

Types

Vinyl wallpaper is available in a variety of colors and patterns, including horizontal, vertical and irregular drop designs.

Vinyl wallpaper is available in self-stick that requires peeling off the backing and pressing the paper against the wall, pre-pasted that simply require wetting with water and non-pasted, which needs a separate paste to adhere to your walls.

Benefits

When compared with other types of wallpaper, vinyl is easy to clean and easier to remove or strip.

Considerations

Textured wallpapers like fabric or foil are better than vinyl at hiding imperfections in your walls like cracks or patches.

Tips

If you are using a particularly heavy type of vinyl wallpaper, the short bristled brush may not be able to adequately smooth it.

With this type of paper use an item with a hard, straight edge, such as a yardstick or board.
