Q: What’s a good alternative to a magnetic paint wall?

• <div><p>If you need a stronger magnetic surface, or you need to use a different type of paint in the room (like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/waterproof-paint.htm">waterproof paint</a> in a damp basement), there are other accessible options. You could fit a steel panel over the wall, try magnetic wallpaper, or apply chalk paint instead. </p><p>If you want an inexpensive shortcut, hang a pinboard or chalkboard on your wall. These removable options are ideal if you&rsquo;re a renter who can&rsquo;t repaint or plan to move in the near future.</p></div>

Q: Do I have to remove old wallpaper before applying new wallpaper?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it&rsquo;s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We&rsquo;d also recommend against <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/laying-wallpaper-over-wallpaper.htm">putting wallpaper over</a> textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. </p></div>

Q: What types of wallpaper are available?

• <div><p>Many types of wallpaper exist, from removable peel-and-stick options to more permanent options that involve pasting. You can also find wallpaper that you can paint over, wallpaper with a texture, and wallpaper made from various materials, such as vinyl. Some types of wallpaper are washable, which can be a great option for kitchens or if your household has small children.</p></div>

Q: Why should I hire a professional wallpaper hanger?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-questions-ask-when-hiring-wallpaper-pro.htm">Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger</a> is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.</p></div>

Q: How long does hanging new wallpaper take?

• <div><p>Putting up new wallpaper tends to take one to two days, depending on the size of the area, whether old paper needs to be removed, and if there is any damage to walls that needs to be smoothed over or fixed.</p></div>

There is a whole section of wallpaper by a door that was not removed or attempted rather was half covered up by joint compound hoping I wouldn’t see it. I sent an email with a picture requesting a response back, no response to date.
