Concise and well described. No wasted time! I love it!
Thankyou very much.
Excellent video, thanks for showing us your full process.
Thankyou for watching.
This is the kind of instruction I feel like I would get in my first week on a jobsite. This is masterfully explained and edited. I'm getting ready to do some light restoration work on a midcentury home and am sure I will be back for more advice.
Thankyou Very much for your kind comment.
Great instructions! No messing about, no bullsh*t, just good, clear explanations. 1 new sub. I will be bingeing your vids as I am starting decorating my flat soon. 👍🏻

Progress not perfection ❤
Thankyou.
Loved that, was just what I needed to hear!
Excellent video and you re good teacher. Is it the same kind of treatment after removing ceiling papers? If we see paper tapes on ceiling cracks after removing the ceiling papers, is there anything we should be aware of? The taped cracks look flat though. Many thanks
It would be the same process on a cieling. Not sure what you mean about paper tapes on cieling cracks. lol
Hi love the video. I've just stripped the wallpaper in my room, do I need to prime the plasterwall before I paint it with matte white?
Thankyou. If its bare plaster you need to mist coat it with a thined down matt paint, the mix is 70 percent paint 30 percent water.
Great video, i have some very good wall paper in my hallway can i just paint it with 2 coats if i fill and glue any defects , thankyou.
Thankyou for watching, This video will help.czcams.com/video/vIQcL9mJRrw/video.html
Does the first sanding get rid of any wallpaper paste residue ?
@Danny A . It sure does, if you want to sugar soap aswell you can, to be honest i never have suger soaped in 25 years.
Hi Steve, having just watched a bunch of your videos as i progress my way through my delightful 19070's semi. I've just stripped one of the bedroom walls, multiple layers of wallpaper and now also have a flaking layer of old paint. How best do I tackle this stubborn paint layer in prep for fresh paint or probably a skim layer then paint? Cheers
@Gus Cowley .Give ithe loose a scrape and a sand, then give it all a coat of paint, then you will see what needs fine filling, maybe first fill anything you can see before you put the first coat of paint on.
im in the exact same situation now. What did you do in the end?
I was going to get paint from Home Bargains for the 'mist' coat or prep coat as it's cheap. Any thoughts on the downside to doing this?
@Dan F . I used valspar contract matt in this video as i wanted to help hide the blemishes in the walls, it is also good for new plaster. Let me know how the home bargains paint is for base coating when you are done, thanks for your support much appreciated.
Great video mate. Is there any reason you don't use an electric sander for the walls?
Thankyou very much, just never have. Maybe i should try.
how do get your easifill to sit right. I find when I try and smooth off I get loads of ridges etc and if I try and smooth too much it pulls out. Thanks
Dont over fill, most filling situations require 2 fills. Fiill clean so there isn't much sanding. Also once everything is fully painted and everything is back in the room you probably won't notice the odd defect here and there.. Remember progress not perfection.
Can you please explain what’s the best way to set your ladder up to get at the top of the staircase?
Hope this helps, czcams.com/video/yETz1SCiWK0/video.html
Thank you! 😊
What grade sandpaper do you use for second sand? 80 again?
@simon Ward . U used a worn down 80 grade sandpaper.
Try toupret smoothing filler blue large tubs B and Q ,this along with all toupret range the best fillers it doesn't grin through paint.
Will do, are they a bit harder to sand.
I’ve got a house that is fully wallpapered and walls are not good when I’m removing it I think it was professionally done I’m left with brown plasterboard and painted patches I’ve been sanding filling to try and even it out your video is a great help
Thankyou very much for watching, i am pleased the video helps. Let me know how you get on.
I’m the same. Did you put a primer on after removal of wallpaper or just first coat of paint? I just imagine my walls will be bumpy 🤔
This was very helpful, thank you! I was looking for what to do next after stripping wood chip, sanding, initial filling and resanding of Victorian walls. I'm putting up 1400grade lining paper once the woodwork has been painted as the walls aren't perfect. Do I need to wash down with sugar soap and do a coat of paint before papering?
Thankyou for watching,this video will help with what to do. czcams.com/video/J1TXSvFaJvI/video.html
@@Inexteriors thank you for your quick reply Steve! I've subscribed after looking up more of your videos (before I saw your reply). I love your motto, 'progress not perfection', it's going to become my mantra!
Thankyou for your support, i am glad to help. Perfection does not exist, if you do your best, it will always work out ok.
Very simple question. My wall still has small residues of wall paper glue is it fine to leave and start painting or would I have to completely remove all the glue?
If glue is dry give it a sand, then a wash with some suger soap to be safe.
Awesome thank you.
Thankyou very much for watching.
When I do the wallpaper removal I take everything of skimm the walls then sand then prime and it comes out MINT is that ok I find it easier PLEASE let me know what you think feedback please ty
Sounds good to me my freind.
I've removed wallpaper and walls are painted in an old eggshell type paint. How do I prepare it to take a matt or vynil matt emulsion?
@Gail . Give it a good sand with 80 grade sandpaper to get a good key, then do a tester patch with 2 coats of matt and see what happens.
@@Inexteriors Thank you
@Gail . Let me know how you get on.
Any particular reason ya use caulk board instead of a broader steel filling knife?
@Deekoh39 . Its just how i was taught, i also have a wider caulk board.
I’ve just never seen them
Here in the US
Interesting
🍻
@@deekoh3996 Lol, i think i know what you mean with the broader filling knife, i think they use the for dry lining here.
Hello mate, i have managed to remove the main wallpaper however bits from second layer of the wallpaper are still stuck, is there any easy way to take these off as i think using a scraper would take ages
Also is basecoat important, i am using green colour as my main paint colour but can basecoat colour b3 any colour?
@Ethsan Khan ,Try soaking the bits that are left with water, then try scrapping. You can use the the green as a base coat
if your walls are in good condition then a base coat is not required, if it is new plaster under the wallpaper then it will need a mist coat.
Hi, i have taken the wallpaper off but it’s taken off paint underneath, so now just plaster. How do I prep the wall for painting? Do I now have to prime the plaster?
It is a good idea to mist coat new plaster, this video might help. czcams.com/video/vAJnhfPcAro/video.html
@@Inexteriors Thanks for the quick reply. And your video has been very helpful.
@Chris The Wizard Hubbard Thankyou very much. I can't see what your walls, but you might want to give the walls a light sand first. I do have a video on painting new plaster from start to finish, just let me know and i will give you the link. Its an extended version of the mist coat vid but it shows the full process.
Matey, nice vids… get yourself a Mirka or like for sanding👍
@Jamie Padington . Thankyou very much.
The brand of roller you are using please ?
It is this one in the link amzn.eu/d/hPs5IYq
Great work! What paint do you use for base coat?
Thankyou very much. It was valspar.

@@Inexteriors thank you and I assume I can paint over this fine with other Matt paint? I want to put on dulux matt as my top coat
@@amritpalsandhu684 Yes.
@@Inexteriors thankyou! 😊
I have removed paper but it has pulled bits of the original paint off therefore very uneven surface,worse than your blemishes,any ideas as sanding it will take forever as i think i will havecto feathercall areas where paint has come off.
Is there anything out there you can paint on prior to emulsion to even the surface?
Appreciate any help as do not want to go to he expense of skimmming walls
Try this method of filling some of the areas in this video. czcams.com/video/og63R_irLsY/video.html
Remember perfection does no exist.
so follow the procces in the video but fiil the areas how i filled in the video i have left in the comments. You can use this ready mixed filler, if you dont want to mix the gyroc easifill 60. www.diy.com/departments/make-good-ready-mixed-jointing-filling-finishing-powder-compound-2-5kg-box/5060370713097_BQ.prd?storeId=&ds_rl=1272379&gclid=Cj0KCQiA-oqdBhDfARIsAO0TrGFUHkPASb682daGTaLR_FI2s0svvRolFp0tfHAflquNwKfP8xSBBa0aAuw3EALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
Hope this helps.
@@Inexteriors Many thanks for your swift response,will try the easyfill ovwr next few days,many thanks again
@@grahamcharlton861 Let me know how you get on.
@@Inexteriors will do
Rubbed down,filled,rubbed down,filled base coat emulsion to highlight any areas,rubbed down again,filled still not so good, carry on tomorrow and try to improve it more
is there a risk of any remaining wallpaper adhesive embedded in the wall reacting with the paint?
You can wash with suger soap if needed, to be honest in in 26 years i have never had a problem. A good sand has always done the job. Just make sure walls are dry before sanding. or you can coat it in zinsser guardz first, i have never used it, but i have heard good things about it.
Apologies me again, I’ve sanded my walls and washed down and then applied a mist coat, as I’ve then gone to do a base coat. The mist coat has some chalky residue, is this normal?
Then when applying Matt emulsion on top neat, I can then see the mist coat underneath getting wet and thinning out, the wall then scratches very easily and the paint scrapes off. Any ideas? Can I apply Zinser primer over the top to seal? Or do I need to go back to bare plaster?
@Amritpal Sandhu Hi, let it dry, give a light sand then apply the zinsser guards, it is hard to make a proper assessment without seeing it.. how much chalky residue is there.
@@Inexteriors thank you
How long did this take you mate?
If i remember the full staircase including ceilings and wood work took about a week. the customer striped the wallpaper.
Wondering why you sand by hand, not an electrical/battery sander? At least the first round of sanding..?
Other than that, nice to see the whole process. 👍
Its just how i was taught thats all, i think you are right lol, time to move with the timea lol.
How much did you charge
I cant remember now, it was about 3 years ago.
What is the Paint finish on the walls
Vinyl matt
I need help with my walls
@Daily Whatsapp . Whats the problem you are facing with the walls.
@@Inexteriors I removed the wallpaper from a property i just brought and it looks like the previous skim is cracking near the ceiling. Also the switches and sockets are loose. Watching your videos has given me some confidence, but still don't know what I'm really. 😉
@@dailywhatsapp3822 All you can do is your best, progress not perfection.
What does it mean to "fill cleanly?"
When you fill cleanly, its easier to sand.
Thanks. I understand it's easier to sand, but I don't actually understand what "fill cleanly" means. Does it mean, fill any holes flush and do not overfill them? @@Inexteriors
@@shusseina yes because you can always give it a 2nd fill, most holes require 2 fills, some times 3, dont over fill thinking it will go in 1 fill.
Coat on first. Then fill
Ok
Treat yourself to a Mirka dust free random orbital sander and dust extraction machine. Sugar soap wash after sanding.
Great
so no need to skim yea mate?
Let me know how you get on, remember progress not perfection my friend.
You didn’t bond the wall first if there’s any paste on the walls still it will bubble through the paint
It went fine lol, I would of use zinsser gardz if there was any problems lol.
Should have put a coat off blue zinsser on the walls first , then fill
I will try one day, you mean the bullseye 123, i am slowly getting round to try all the zinsser products, very happy with what i have tried so far.
Yes seals , and zinsser gards good as well, seals old wallpaper paste and dry walls, top coat with any emulsions
I will get round to using it, i really appreciate the feedback, its always good to keep learning.
G needs a haircut, top class content though 👍
lol, i have had a few haircuts since, thanks for watching.
Wrong process on many levels
Ok bud, no worries, we all do things different my freind, what would your procces be.
Mirka or machine sander all surfaces, filler, light sand over filler, coat of zinsser guardz to seal in old paste residue, 1st coat of paint, filler, 2nd coat
@@beecee985 I have only started using the zinsser products the last couple of years, never used the guardz, heard good things about it just like the other products. To be honest i have never had a problem with paste residue, Many people mention machine sander, think i will invest in one lol, i appreciate you engaging with the channel.
How not to decorate would be a better title
lol.
