Wall Paint for Wallpaper & Woodchip

Wall Paint for Wallpaper & Woodchip: What You Need to Know

Everyone has a room in their flat or house that could do with more colour! This also applies to a wallpapered wall.
Not just wallpaper – you can also perfectly paint paper wallpapers, non-woven wallpapers, patterned wallpapers, and textured wallpapers. No matter what type it is – our paints let you transform all your walls! Painting offers the ideal opportunity to give your home a fresh new look time and again. Painting an accent wall in a different colour is actually just as quick as a trip to the furniture shops looking for new décor. Here you'll find important information about wall paint for different types of wallpaper.

What Makes Our Wall Paint for Wallpaper & Woodchip Special?

With our wall paints, you can give plain wallpaper an elegant and special look. The wonderfully powdery and matte finish of our wall paints transforms even the most boring wallpaper into a real eye-catcher. The paint offers superb coverage, is abrasion-resistant and durable, and incredibly easy to apply. You're spoilt for choice, as we offer countless shades in various finishes. So, which is your favourite shade?

Can You Paint Over Any Wallpaper?

Generally, you can paint over any wallpaper with a brush or a paint roller. Naturally, our paint is suitable for wallpaper. The important thing is that the wallpaper is still firmly attached to the wall. If it's partially loose, the moisture created during painting can loosen the wallpaper further. If the wallpaper was well applied, you usually won't see the seams of the individual strips after painting.

Common Uses for Wallpaper Paint

Sometimes it's not the pattern of the textured wallpaper that bothers you, but simply the colour. And wallpaper was practically invented for changing colours often. So, perfect for us colour fanatics! Or perhaps the trendy retro pattern of your non-woven wallpaper from a few years ago no longer suits your style? A fresh coat of paint can help with that too. So, you can also paint your textured wallpaper.
Your wallpapered ceiling can be just as wonderfully transformed with our paints!

This is the Paint to Use for Wallpaper

Looking to paint wallpaper? All the paint qualities mentioned above are also suitable for wallpaper. Ensure the wallpaper can absorb the paint well. It should be neither too absorbent nor too water-repellent. It's best to test a small area first to see how the paint behaves on your surface.

Painting Wallpaper & Woodchip: 3 Application Tips

• Tip 1: Before you start painting, you can first fill old rawlplug holes, nicks, or nail holes with our To Fill - MissPompadour filler.
• Tip 2: You can easily paint over your wallpaper. It's best to pour the paint into a paint tray. For all corners and edges, you can use our brushes and paint the surfaces with a paint roller. You can also use a smaller roller. Our wall paints are quite dense – with a smaller roller, you'll find it easier to keep going!
• Tip 3: Since woodchip is uneven, it's advisable to work in a cross-hatch pattern. So, you paint a surface first from top to bottom and then horizontally across. This way, you'll reach all the indentations. If you have a highly textured surface, a long-pile paint roller might be a good choice.
