Flexible solutions for rented house space
In the context that many people living in rented houses find it difficult to change the interior structure, renovating the space while still ensuring "returning to its original state" is always a difficult problem. A solution that is being highly appreciated by design experts is painting directly on self-adhesive wallpaper.
According to Mr. Jonathan Faccone - founder of Halo Homebuyers (USA), this method brings clear cost efficiency and flexibility. "This is a suitable choice for people who want to change their style regularly without having to remove or completely replace wallpaper," he said.
Self-adhesive wallpaper acts as a cushion, helping users to create colors and patterns without directly impacting real walls. This is especially useful for tenants or those who do not want to paint permanently.
However, to achieve high efficiency, surface preparation is an indispensable step. Experts recommend cleaning the walls, removing dust and treating rough spots before pasting paper and coating.
Technical notes to ensure durability and aesthetics
Besides the preparation stage, choosing suitable materials also determines the finishing quality. Mr. Tony Hoang - design expert at What A Room (USA), emphasized: "High-quality acrylic latex paint should be used to ensure adhesion and limit peeling.
According to him, light glossy paints such as satin or semi-polish will help the surface be more durable, especially in areas with high usage frequency. Conversely, paint that is too matte or contains a lot of moisture can reduce the lifespan of the coating.
In addition, adding a transparent protective layer after painting is also recommended. This coating helps increase moisture resistance, limit scratches and maintain color for a long time, especially in areas such as kitchens or bathrooms.
Experts also note that new, flat surface wallpaper should be used to avoid uneven paint. Removing power outlets and switches before construction also helps increase overall aesthetics.
With a simple approach, reasonable cost and ease of change, the method of painting on wallpaper is becoming a worthwhile choice for those who want to refresh their living space while still ensuring flexibility.
