What are the precautions for applying wallpaper in summer?

The weather in summer is changeable, with high temperatures and rain often coming, which is a big no-no for wallpapers that need to be dried. If your home is also decorated with wallpaper, you should pay attention to the following. 1. Pay attention to air humidity: During wallpaper construction, the relative humidity of indoor air should not be greater than 85%, so you must choose the right weather. During construction, the interior should be clean, free of dust and debris, doors and windows should be closed during the day and night, and construction on wet walls should be avoided. If the wall has been affected by moisture, it is best to apply base film or clear oil after the wall is dry. It is recommended to apply clear oil on the wall first to protect the wall and prevent moisture. After drying, lightly polish it with sandpaper. It should be noted that the clear oil should be applied at most twice, otherwise the wall will be too smooth, causing the wallpaper to not stick firmly to the wall, and seams will easily occur during the drying process. 2. Pay attention to the glue used: The temperature is high in summer, and formaldehyde, benzene, etc. present in decorative materials are also easy to volatilize, so you must pay more attention to the environmental protection of decoration. When laying wallpaper, try to use non-toxic and environmentally friendly wallpaper glue and hire a professional wallpaper construction unit. Generally, you can choose potato starch glue or glutinous rice starch glue, and some wallpaper brands will provide special glue. In addition, there are some wallpaper glues on the market for children's rooms. 3. Pay attention to maintenance after construction: Because the air is humid in spring, in order to allow the walls to dry as quickly as possible, open doors and windows for ventilation. Summer is different. Because it is dry, the wallpaper generally needs to be brushed thicker before being laid, and left for 15 minutes before being laid. If you open the doors and windows at this time and let the freshly laid wallpaper blow into the "draft", the wallpaper will shrink and deform due to rapid loss of water. In addition, the air conditioner should be turned off during construction to prevent drafts and excessive temperature changes, otherwise it will easily cause uneven surfaces, bulging, cracked joints, seams, and edge warping. After construction in summer, windows must be opened for ventilation after 36-48 hours.
