Q: Do I need to wash the walls after removing wallpaper?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall&rsquo;s surface. </p></div>

Q: How do I reduce the risk of moldy wallpaper?

• <div><p>Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. </p></div>

Q: Can I paint over wallpaper?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-paintable-wallpaper.htm">paint over existing wallpaper</a> if you select wallpaper that is designed to be paintable. This type of paper is meant to add texture to walls. Alternatively, if you have old wallpaper you&rsquo;d like to cover up, you can often paint over that instead of removing it. However, it needs to be smooth, damage-free, and non-textured. Otherwise, any bumps, tears, and texture will show through the paint.</p></div>

Q: How do you remove unused wallpaper paste?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it&rsquo;s in by letting it dry. If it&rsquo;s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it&rsquo;s water-soluble, don&rsquo;t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain walls after wallpaper removal?

• <div><p>Prime and repaint walls after removal to ensure a clean, finished surface.</p></div>
