What an excellent video. I have been scratching my head how to do this properly and you not only showed us but also provided an understanding of the process. Thank you for taking the time to share your knowledge. Good job.
OMG this guy talks way too much, and he could have edited out all the long and repetitive work, but it looks like he did a masterful job and he provided some good tips. No way he needed two parts and 31 minutes to get this information across. Less is more, dude.
I’m so sorry. Everyone says it. I’ve learned to curb my talking. So sorry. Did you at least have a snack while you watched me?
I find your "expensive explaining" relaxing and reassuring i'll be trying this in my "new" old bathroom as a temp fix tomorrow
I see you speak spanish, so... Me gustó la forma clara que tomaste para explicar, no veo problema en el tiempo, gracias por tu tiempo y la forma de hacer el video. Tks a lot
I watched both videos and I think I might have missed something.
It f you are going to use Liquid Nails on the open seams, then why use the first super tack stuff? Why not just use the liquid nails?
I thknks you're a great teacher, you have the gift. It was very helpfull for me. Gracias nuevamente y sigue ayudando a la comunidad que busca explicaciones tan claras
This video was very helpful. I was able to follow along and understand your instructions. Thank you. You are a good teacher.
Thx Spencer if you are still alive out there, I’m the hero now after following these instructions, it’s all in the tools and the drive to do it
Would you suggest a product similiar to Roman pro555 but in Quart size?
Best I have seen doing just that...fixing the seam..I thank You..Rob From CT. 06460
Lots of negativity towards you on this video pal. At least you are trying, ok it does take a long time to repair this seam but its obvious its trial and error as to what will actually stick this stubborn seam. You did a decent job. How did the seam lift in the first place as the rest of the wall looks good.
nice job, I will try your method, it looks like it works!
Liquid nails? I wouldn't like to be the person in the future having to remove this wallpaper 🙁
Liquid nails in this type of setting is fine. You scrape it off with a 2-hand scraper. How hard is that. ?we only talking about a few inches of liquid nails. Geez. Don’t be too critical.
but, still the joint is visible.
, which is not acceptable to customer.
Hi Spencer, thank you for taking time to explain how you repair these wallpaper seams. I will soon try to repair a seam in a bathroom with wallpaper that appears to be part vinyl. I cannot obtain Roman 555 before I do this. Is there a substitute, either another Roman product or adhesive you would recommend? The liquid nails I have I believe is the same as yours in the video, Liquid Nail Projects.
Use the liquid nails but don’t let it get on the front of the wallpaper.
Wow. Um. Yeah. That aint going no where!
Search for wallpaper supplies
I can't seem to find a video about this question: Can you hang wallpaper on the same wall as a baseboard heater? We have all kids of old paper in our house on walls with baseboard heaters. We like the wallpaper look and want to hang new paper, but I'm reading that you shouldn't hang on a wall with an electric baseboard. The walls in questions have small 36" heaters. Thoughts?
Very impressive is that a hot air gun that strips paint off
No. It doesn’t
YOU ARE THE BEST MR SPENCER.
awesome
so many negative comments?! that wallpaper must have been there for years! if you want it to look NEW you tear everything off and redo everything which will incur a larger dollar amount. Im sure the way he repaired it was a lot cheaper and looks fantastic. Of course you can see the seam because it shrunk. Nothing you can do about that. Thank you again Spencer!
Not buying it. Thats gonna look terrible in a few weeks time.
Just bang a load of overlap adhesive OR liquid nails in for more stubborn paper, leave it for five minutes then seam roll it, wipe off gently with a damp sponge...job done in ten minutes.
It been a while I 'm searching for a right solution and this was the best, it really helped me a lot, thank you sooooooo much 👌🏻👍🏻🙏
How many seam you can fix all day this way! Replace the wall cover l think is faster!
He heated it up!? NO!
How would you reseal a textured wallpaper or the fabric style wallpaper? Great videos btw!
It really depends on the backing; it’s a tricky question please tell me what type of backing you’re dealing with
thank you for the tips. will this work for wallpaper seam that was painted over?
How do you join seams when they are now over lapping
Would this work on acrylic wallpaper?
Yes
You Sir are a Craftsman! Thank You for such a detailed presentation of how a Real Pro does it! Worth a subscription for sure!
ABSOLUTELY GOLD. THANK YOU.
Thank you. Excellent video and explanations. Question.. Could you use a blow dryer on its hottest setting for heat application? Would it provide enough heat without overheating the edges??
Excellent idea! I’ve done it myself; yes.
While the end result is acceptable, it would have destroyed a lighter color non woven wallpaper's seam with patterns (say pale yellow with white medallions or other figures). It was pure luck the adhesive was the same tone and color as the wall pattern (dark grey). Were they lighter, the seam would have been glossy and beyond repair after this operation (very unaesthetic). I think this operation would be 5x harder on a lighter colored wallpaper than the one in the video. But you are constantly wiping away the residue while you work which is a major plus, and shows that you understand the problematics of adhesive or glue residue staying on the finished wall (once it dries it just becomes shiny and ruins the appearance). Major points for that.
Doesn't using Liquid Nails make the process of removing the wallpaper (when it's time) much more difficult?
No, not when you’re using it so sparingly on this type of product. The product is very strong. It would tear off the glue with it when you remove it
I work at a hotel and 90% of our room issues are wallpaper seams. Ive always used the roman glue and a hair dryer with mixed results depending how long the wallpaper seam was sitting open for...but never thought to use construction adhesive as i assumed i would have a really hard time getting it off the outside of the wallpaper when all is said and done
What’s your go to method for open seems at the hotel?
@@TheOlzee we never have to time to be busting out steam guns or anything too involved so we generally see if we can get it closed with basic wallpaper glue and a hair dryer/heat gun. If that doesnt work we use construction glue. Which isnt always perfect and you can see the dried glue in some lights even after doing what we can to wipe it off. However our hotel is due for a renovation so management would rather we close the wallpaper seams by any means necessary rather than have rooms out of order for lengthier repairs and losing money on them
Wow!
Thank you for taking the time to make this video you helped me out a lot
So slow and boring
Thank you; I have a slower one with the same title; it’s in the description of the video
I gotta say Spencer, whilst I am only a DIY'er when it comes to Wallpapering, and I have done my own now since first married for many years, I still learn so much from your videos that make the job that bit easier, and at 69 I need all the help I can get. I am in the process quuite often of re-educating myself, as far as painting and decorating go, and it is your videos a am sticking with ( i have already watched several related to wallpapering. Your fame has travelled across the big pond mate all the way to Merseyside (near Liverpool) in England. Keep them coming.
Tough job. Open seams are a PITA! I’ve tried to repair particularly problematic seams in my home several times to no great effect. Even used rubber cement that worked for about a week. Now all the seams are peeling again. I’ll try the extreme tack one more time to see if that works. Thanks for the tip. Btw- it’s embossed vinyl paper, I think that’s why it’s giving me such a hard time.
In fact the more I watch im convinced this is a how not to do it video
Why don’t you watch it after you get a little sleep or have your coffee, eh?
@@spencercolgan well im not going to get into a mud slinging match with you,,,but honestly after being in the trade for forty years ive never seen anyone use so many tools,and so many materials to do a 10 minute repair which only needs water ready mixed paste or overlap adheisive
singtracks
Listen to me… You have no idea how open I am to suggestions on how to do things better. I have no desire to make you believe that I am the best. I beg you to share with me the knowledge that you have on this matter. This repair was a singular pain in the you know what. I used the strongest adhesive known to the human race and it failed me my friend. Why don’t you tell us how to do it?
John Bhoy that would never work
John Bhoy border adhesive on commercial vinyl???
O my god
it all depends on the type of wallpaper, wetting with water or humidifying with steam is the same process and does not need special glue, it just needs to be slightly damp because of the elasticity of the paper, then it is to put glue and press normally with a sponge or roll. Nothing special and the explanation is too complicated and long, the task is easy to perform.
Antonio, if you are correct, I would say you are right. You are dead wrong; this had no elasticity whatsoever my friend. It was dry like dry leaves on the ground in the winter time my friend trust me when I tell you and it was so dry that it shrunk
This is just overkill
O. My gosh ! I wish. Sing tracks, this is the way to go.
