Fibre Lining Paper: The Facts

Gallery

Unless you’re a DIY nut, it’s hard to keep up with developments in tools to help with wall preparation, wall coverings and paint. There have been a number of new developments recently, like thermal lining paper, metallic and glitter wallpaper, eco-friendly paint and wallpaper and mould resistant paint. So lets take this opportunity to talk about one of the most popular new products on the market – fibre lining paper.

What’s Fibre Lining Paper?

Fibre Lining Paper, also known as fibreliner, is designed to be used on your walls to prepare them for wallpapering. Generally, they’re made from a wood pulp containing short fibres of wood that are compacted together to make a strong paper. When this is applied to the walls of your home, the lining paper helps to smooth the walls and will form a strong bond to wallpaper, keeping it in place.

Which Brands Produce Fibre Lining Paper?

One of the most popular brands that offer fibre lining paper is Wallrock Fibre Liner, also known as Wallrock Fibreliner. What’s particularly good about this is that it’s made from paper that has been sourced from sustainable forests, so it is an environmentally friendly product.

Wallrock Fibre Lining Paper is also resistant to peeling, which can be an issue with other lining papers. This is because, unlike most fibreliners which are made from short fibre wood pulp, Wallrock Fibre Liner is made from long fibre pulp, making it more flexible. So as walls move slightly, as they do in all homes, the lining paper moves with them without splitting or tearing. This makes using Wallrock Fibre Liner the financially sensible thing to do as it should stay in place for longer.

What Are Common Fibre Lining Paper Uses?

Fibre lining paper can be used on ceilings as well as most walls. It can be used in bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, studies and under wallpaper in the bathroom and kitchen as well. It’s quite durable so it can be used in high traffic areas like hallways and stairs too. Fibre liners can be used instead of thermal liners in homes where heat loss is not a special problem.

You might expect Wallrock Fibreliner to be more expensive given it’s increased durability and long lasting nature, but it’s actually very affordable and where you consider the need to repeat purchase and re-apply cheaper alternatives it’s actually very good value for money.

The Many Advantages of Lining Paper

Gallery

As with many things, preparation is key when it comes to DIY – and especially when it comes to wallpapering. There’s nothing more irritating that having hung perfectly lined up wallpaper only to see bumps, bubbles or pits appear because on uneven plastering. Below we take a look at lining paper and how it can help you achieve better results when you wallpaper your home.

What is lining paper?

Think of lining paper as wallpaper that’s specifically designed to be applied to bare walls to prepare them for wallpapering. It is made from strong fibres so it’s typically more robust that outward facing wallpaper. This means it forms a flat layer over any imperfections in the wall. If you like to feel like you’re doing your bit for the environment, you can get lining paper that’s made from eco friendly fibres. These are typically the heaviest lining paper grades.

Advantages of using lining paper

Whatever type of lining paper you buy, there are always advantages over not using any at all. The primary reason people buy lining paper is to smooth the walls of the room you are redecorating. The lining paper will disguise small bumps, pits or cracks – the more imperfections there are, the thicker lining paper you should use. Another big advantage  is that it stops the wallpaper from shrinking. This is a common problem when wallpaper is applied directly to walls. It will expand as moisture is added to it in the form of wallpaper paste, then shrink again as it dries. This will lead to gaps between the wallpaper. Lining paper will hold the wallpaper in place at its expanded size. Thirdly, lining paper will stop hung wallpaper from peeling back. This is more common when cheaper wallpaper and adhesives have been used. These are the main points, but there are other added benefits to using lining paper such as added insulation.

So now you know how many advantages there are to using lining paper, you’ve got no excuse not to use it next time you redecorate!

Overcome your wall nightmares with lining paper

Gallery

If you’re decorating your home for the first time, it can be a scary proposition, especially if it involves stripping wallpaper. It has gone in and out of fashion over the years, but it’s often been used to cover over all sorts of imperfections on walls. So when you take it off and see the true condition of you wall it can be a shock. In newer homes you’ll be likely to see smooth plasters, but into older ones it’s not always the case. Let’s look at how some common wall problems can be sorted out with lining paper.

Uneven Walls – This is a common problem especially in older homes. The initial plastering process may have left bubbles or pitting, or deterioration of the plaster over the years may have led to other imperfections. Uneven walls can make wallpapering or painting difficult. Using lining paper can help solve the problem. The alternative, which is much more expensive, is replastering. If that’s not desirable then using a relatively heavyweight liner such as Anaglypta’s 1000 grade lining paper you should be able to create a smooth surface that’s ready to be painted or wallpapered over.

Cracked Walls – When you strip wallpaper, it sometimes reveals cracks in the plaster beneath. There are two reasons this happens – first is the plaster having dried too quickly when it was initially applied. The second is due to the constant, imperceptible movements in the earth beneath your feet. It’s nothing to worry about, but it can make painting or wallpapering difficult. Use a liner such as Erfurt May’s 1000 lining paper which is strong enough not to tear due to minute house movements and will also create a smooth later to apply paint or wallpaper to.

Marked Walls – Sometimes wallpaper has been used to cover over paint or stains. If it’s be done the disguise the latter, you may already have a clue as stains can show through wallpaper or even leach into them. Heavy staining should always be covered with a sealer first to stop it leaching, but Erfurt Mav’s lining paper 1000 grade will cover over marks, old paint jobs or light stains no problem. It’s also easy to hang and pretty durable.

So make sure to prepare yourself by purchasing some lining paper before you next start redecorating.

Lining Paper Grades Explained

Gallery

There are a whole range of specialist tools and also a range of lining paper grades. But how do you know which grades are the best for you to use?

Lining paper? 600 grade? These terms can be pretty baffling to a novice DIY-er. Paint is available in different types relating to the finish and intended usage.

Below we go through the uses and different lining paper grades from 600 to 2000 lining paper.

What is lining paper?

Before we talk about grades we’re just going to establish, for anyone who’s unsure, what lining paper is. It’s a wall covering, similar to wallpaper, but designed to be hung before putting up wallpaper. Doing this will make a smoother surface to hang wallpaper on. It can be used on relatively smooth walls (600 grade) or to cover over more serious wall imperfections (2000 grade lining paper).

600-1000 Grade

These are the thinnest lining paper grades available. They’re designed to be used on walls that are relatively smooth, with the aim of providing a better surface to hang wallpaper or apply paint to. You can use it to cover hairline crack or very minor imperfections.

1200-1400 Grade

These are thicker lining papers that can be used to cover more pronounced imperfections. That might mean pits, dents, bubbles or mark that would show through wallpaper if you didn’t use lining paper to smooth over. As well as being thicker to 600-1000 grade papers, they are also stronger, meaning they’re more durable and hard wearing.

1700-2000 Grade

The thickest lining papers are 1700-2000 grade. These are more specialist liners designed to cover over more serious dents, scratches and stains. If you have walls with stains such as nicotine, smoke staining or graffiti, then lining paper 2000 grade is the lining paper to use. It’s also used in many period houses to smooth over older plaster jobs.

So that’s our guide to the different lining paper grades and what situations to use different ones in. And one final thing to remember, lining paper can be used on ceilings as well as walls.

Gallery

If you’re a beginner when it comes to DIY, you might question whether the added cost and time of using lining paper is completely necessary? One clue that it is, is that most professional decorators will always use it. This is due to one thing – the condition of most walls, especially in older houses, is that they contain imperfections and need lining. But there’s another question that might stump the novice home redecorator – What grade of lining paper to use. This article looks at when you might need to use a 1700 grade lining paper.

What is lining paper and what do number grades mean?

Lining paper is a wall covering that should be hung on walls before wallpaper to smooth over the walls. They are classed according to numbers, with 600 and 800 grades being the thinnest and 1700 and 2000 being the thickest.

When is 1700 Grade Lining Paper needed?

As we’ve already mentioned, lining paper 1700 grade is one of the thickest lining papers available. It’s designed specifically to even out and disguise imperfections on plastered walls. This might include anything from pitting or bubbling caused by the way the plaster dried, to gouges and scoring caused by wallpaper removal. 1700 grade lining paper can also be used to stop stains or marks from showing or leaching through onto wallpaper.

Where to buy 1700 lining paper

Lower grades of lining paper are produced by many brands and are easy to find in many DIY stores as well as online. But the higher grades are not available so widely. They are usually more expensive than lower grades of lining paper due to the more complex manufacturing process. One of the brands that produces 1700 grade is Erfurt Mav. You should be able to find this from a few online stores.

So there you go – if you think you have walls that require a thicker lining paper then opt for 1700 grade next time you redecorate.
