Paintable Wallpaper
I am using paintable wallpaper. What type of paint should I use? What type of paint can be used
on our Paintable wallpaper?
When painting paintable wallpaper, we recommend a latex or oil based semi-gloss to get the
most professional finish. Any color can be used and if you change your mind or redecorate with
a new color scheme, you can simply repaint the wallpaper over and over again! Paintable
wallpaper designs can look like fabric, stucco, and carved wood, giving your space a textured
and professional look.
Does paintable wallpaper need to be primed?
It is not necessary to prime your wallpaper before painting, although you can if you want. If you
choose to prime your wallpaper, be aware that some have found primer can fill in some of the
paper’s texture leaving you with a less dramatic final result.
How long do I have to wait before I can paint my wallpaper?
You will need to allow time for the adhesive to fully dry. After hanging the wallpaper, it is
recommended to wait a minimum of 36 hours before you apply a coat of paint. Painting too
soon can cause the wallpaper to bubble.
Do I have to paint the Paintable wallpaper?
No, you don’t! Paintable wallpaper is a great way to add texture to your walls while still leaving
them a fresh, crisp white. It can also help you hide a wall with imperfections. You could always
decide to paint your wallpaper at a later time. If you do paint later on, just make sure to remove
any dust or debris that may have gathered on the paper to ensure a smooth paint job.
