Classic non-woven wallpaper for painting
Another more than popular material for the decoration of the walls. This wallpaper for painting is different from paper wallpaper for painting with its texture and method of manufacture. They are produced by pressing several webs together. Foam can be applied on top, which will act as texture and volume on the surface. Thanks to this production method, this wall material is very durable. For this feature of its non-woven wallpaper selects a lot of consumers.
What do you think, why experts recommend using these wallpapers to decorate rooms in new buildings? That's right, in order not to succumb to minor shifts of the walls during the "shrinkage" of the new building. Other material could not stand it, would go cracked or torn. Non-woven wallpaper is better to use on the walls, which are covered with minor defects, nothing will happen to them from this!
If you are still planning to repair, imagine how difficult the next time you have to otkovyrivat wallpaper from the walls, then with non-woven can not be afraid of this. It is enough to pry them with a spatula on the one hand, as they evenly move away from the wall.
But the pros and cons of non-woven wallpaper does not end there. You can also repaint them a number of times. And it is not at all necessary to use the same or similar shades all the time. You can choose a new color each time to repaint your wallpaper. You can achieve different effects by painting different sides of the wallpaper. So, there is one unusual way of dyeing non-woven wallpaper. For this, the paint is applied not on the external surface, but on the internal one, which will be glued to the wall. Often, the fabric of non-woven wallpaper is heterogeneous, in some places more dense, in some, on the contrary, very thin, enlightened. If you apply paint from the inside, then the wallpaper will become the color you want, but with smooth hue transitions from more saturated to pastel, almost white.
Another interesting design option for such a coating will be done with a sponge and paint. You can leave the surface white, you can pre-paint the entire surface in a certain tone. Then, a sponge paint or mother-of-pearl should be carefully applied to the sponge and gradually, with strokes without pressure, paint the relief parts of the surface. So you can select a pattern.
Despite all the advantages, non-woven wallpapers also have disadvantages. Let's talk about them further. Foamed material applied on top of the wallpaper is easily damaged. Therefore, do not use them in the nursery or hallway. In this case, it is better to protect the lower part of the wall with wooden or plastic panels. This will prevent chipping and scratching.
It should also be said that over time, your chosen shade for painting will fade under the influence of sunlight. The difference can be significant. Therefore, always consider in advance the level of illumination of the room with sunlight when choosing a shade of wall covering.
It should be noted that classic non-woven wallpapers are used for painting.
However, there are still wallpapers on non-woven base, where the base is used as non-woven fiber, and the top layer is decorated vinyl. The advantage of this canvas is that when you stick a new wallpaper, the upper base is simply removed, and you can glue the new wallpaper onto the lower one.
