Can I hang wallpaper over textured wallpaper?

• <div><p>If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding. </p></div>

Is painting over wallpaper a good idea?

• <div><p>It’s best to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/wallpaper-removal.htm">remove wallpaper</a> rather than paint over it. You should only paint over wallpaper if removing it would damage the wall, the surface is relatively smooth, or there are minimal problem areas—such as slight peeling and lifted seams—that you can fix easily. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it can create more problems if the wallpaper is in poor condition and you don’t properly prep the area for painting. Depending on the state of the wallpaper, color, and textures could show through, and moisture from the paint could loosen the adhesive, causing unsightly bubbling.</p></div>

Can you remove limewash from brick?

• <div><p>Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.</p></div>

Q: How do you dispose of wallpaper?

• <div><p>Small amounts of wallpaper can be thrown away in your household trash.

Wallpaper isn&rsquo;t recyclable, so no matter which method you choose to dispose of it, make sure it doesn&rsquo;t get mixed in with the recycling.</p></div>

Q: What elements influence the cost of removing wallpaper?

• <div><p>Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.</p></div>
