Depending on if your painting wallpaper if can be filled ...

Rohimul · Answer

If the glue has dried then no it isn't unless u replace it with another.

Craig · Answer

When you notice gaps between your wallpaper seams, you can use paint a color that is similar to the one on the wallpaper and cover small gaps. This only works for small gaps, but it is far simpler and less potentially damaging than re-doing the wallpaper

Max · Answer

If patterned paper no or if you are thinking of painting over the wall paper then you could fill the gaps

Kamil · Answer

Hi, yes it is possible only if you would like to paint after  the wallpaper, I did several times before painting, just needs to fill the gaps with good filler, and then slightly sanded, and paint over.
Otherwise fill the gaps with no painting you will se the marks.
Thanks

Clive · Answer

Not really but try and wet with wallpaper paste leave it soak and stretch it if not use a crayon of same colour

David · Answer

You have not let the wallpaper soak the recommended time

Calin · Answer

Yes of course.
But in order to determine the correct repair please specify few factors such as how big are the gaps, the quality of the wallpaper and wall/plasterboard, what is the expected end result after the repair, and is the wall going to be painted afterwards?
Are the gaps caused by poor workmanship or the wallpaper is peeling off due to old age ?
Happy to provide a solution if the above info is known .
Thank you

Hello. if it is a feature paper the answer is no. if it is lining paper then yes it can be filled and sanded

Brian · Answer

Hi, sorry it's not possible if it's finish paper, pattern etc, if it's lining paper or a paper that your going to paint over then you can fill and paint it but it isn't a proper job really, but possible.

Brian
