How to paint?

In fact, such a coating can be painted. This makes it possible to vary the style to your preferences and fashion trends. Only latex paint is suitable for painting. To paint the Venetian, you need to do this:
- Pour paint into the pallet.
- Place the roller in the paint.
- Removing the roller, it is necessary to allow excess paint to drain.
- Apply to walls, covering as large a surface as possible. It is necessary to scroll the roller several times, pulling the paint along the walls.
- It is important to ensure that there is no “receding hairline”.
- In conclusion, once again walk along the painted walls with a roller.

The gluing process depends on the substrate. But overall it is similar:
- First you need to smooth the surface of the walls. With small defects, they are putty, with large irregularities - plaster or drywall is applied.
- The walls must be primed.
- Wallpaper is cut into stripes. It is important to observe the allowances. The top allowance is 1.5 cm, the bottom is 3 cm.
- Using a plumb line, a landmark is drawn.
- In a special container, glue is diluted in accordance with the instructions on the package.
- Using a roller or wide brush, glue is applied to the wall. If the base is paper, then it is necessary to glue the strip itself. Vinyl Venetian does not require this.
- Apply the front page straight up the plumb line. Begin to apply a strip on top.
- Use a spatula from top to bottom to remove all bubbles. The same is done from the center to the edges.
- The second strip is glued butt with the first. On the line of the joint you need to walk with a dry roller.
