FAQs
What is Erfurt Lining Paper?
Erfurt Lining Paper is a heavy-duty lining paper designed to cover and reinforce walls, providing a smooth base for paint or wallpaper.
What grade is this lining paper?
This is 2000 Grade lining paper.
Can I paint directly onto the lining paper?
Yes, once the lining paper is completely dry, you can paint directly onto it. It's recommended to use a good quality paint.
What type of adhesive should I use?

Troubleshooting
Air bubbles are present after application.
Use a smoothing brush or roller to push the air bubbles to the edges and smooth them out.

Ensure the seams are properly overlapped and gently press them down with a seam roller.
The paper is not adhering to the wall.
