Q: Do I need to prime paintable wallpaper before painting?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t need to apply <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/quick-primer-interior-painting.htm">paint primer</a> to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn&rsquo;t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won&rsquo;t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.</p></div>

Q: Will peel-and-stick wallpaper damage walls?

• <div><p>Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application&mdash;it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.</p></div>

Q: Should an accent wall be lighter or darker?

• <div><p>Deciding between a lighter or darker accent wall depends on the effect you&rsquo;re going for. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/choosing-an-accent-wall.htm">Choosing an accent wall</a> in a lighter color will make a room feel brighter and more spacious and complement rooms with less natural light. A darker accent wall will add drama and depth to a room and help make larger rooms feel more cozy and intimate.</p></div>

Q: Should I wallpaper over old wallpaper?

• <div><p>We don&rsquo;t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That&rsquo;s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall&rsquo;s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.</p></div>

Q: What is the best wallpaper to hide imperfections?

• <div><p>Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them. </p></div>
