Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
More answers to frequently asked questions...
Q: My paneling has been primed and painted over years ago. Do I need to re-prime or can I just start to hang paper illusions?
A: If the paneling has wallpaper primer topped with a coat of flat latex the PaperIllusion should stick just fine. The manufacturer recommends always coating the wall with a good grade universal wallpaper primer prior to installing PaperIllusion.
If you have a question that you'd like answered, don't hesitate to ask. Just email me and if I don't know the answer, I'll track down someone who does.
Tips & Testimonials
Here are some tips and testimonials from those who have used the product themselves. Read what they have to say...
TIP: When covering paper mache items, you don't need to prime the surface first...you can just tear, dip & apply.
TESTIMONIAL: Paper Illusions is so fun to use. We actually have used it in 5 rooms now and love the look and get so many compliments. We have talked several people into using it. It is so easy and actually fun to do. My daughter and I find it relaxing and rewarding! Try it and you will be hooked. - Sheila Brune
TIP: You don't have to cut any straight edges - just use the straight edges of the product on the straight edges of the wall first and fill in the rest. Also, you can just do a little bit at a time if you wish. Also, save your paper if you need to patch later. - Judy anon
