Can I glue the wooden strips directly to the wallpaper?

The direct gluing of the wooden strips on a wallpaper is possible in principle, but we advise our customers against it. It can always happen that there are air pockets and thus to detach the wooden strips from the wall. Furthermore, it can happen that the wallpaper comes off the wall, because the wallpaper paste does not provide the necessary strength to hold the wooden tiles. In such cases we recommend to remove the wallpaper from the wall or to have a simple substructure with e.g. MDF / plywood to build. These are available inexpensively in any hardware store / DIY markets and quickly and easily attached / screwed to the wall. On these wall substructure the wooden strips can be easily applied without primer. Another option is to glue the wooden strips to the renovation fleece, whereby we can only recommend the Wakol adhesive. The directly stink of wooden strips to acrylic paint is also possible, but only with Wakol adhesive.
