Preparing Papered Walls for New Paper Finish

Problem:
What's the quickest, least messy way to shift old paper, how do you fill wide, shallow holes in the plaster and what about last-minute repairs?

Fix it with:
Finishing Skim Polyfilla , Wallpaper Stripper , Quick Drying Polyfilla

You can do it:
Who stuck this wallpaper on with super-glue? Wallpaper Stripper will get it off and no messing. Just pour it into water, according the instructions, then brush or sponge the solution onto the paper. Leave for 5-10 minutes while it soaks in then simply scrape off.

For minor plaster repairs, Finishing Skim Polyfilla is thick enough to brush straight into shallow holes and smooth flat with a spreader. And for those little holes and cracks you find as you're re-papering use Quick Drying Polyfilla and you'll be ready to continue papering in less time that it takes to make a cup of tea!
