Can I paint over this lining paper?

Is this product suitable for bathrooms or kitchens?
While durable, it is generally recommended for living areas. For high-moisture environments, ensure proper ventilation and consider a paint finish suitable for such conditions.
What kind of adhesive should I use?
Use a high-quality, ready-mixed or powder-based wallpaper adhesive suitable for heavy-duty lining papers. Always check the adhesive manufacturer's recommendations.
How do I clean the lining paper?
Once painted, it can be cleaned gently with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or excessive water.
Can it be applied over wallpaper?
It is best applied directly to plaster or painted surfaces. If applying over old wallpaper, ensure the old paper is firmly adhered and in good condition, or strip it first.
Troubleshooting
Bubbles or wrinkles appear after application.
This usually indicates insufficient adhesive or improper smoothing. Gently lift the affected area and reapply adhesive, smoothing firmly from the center outwards.
Lining paper is difficult to cut.
Ensure you are using a sharp, fresh blade on your craft knife. A dull blade can snag and tear the paper.
Adhesive is not sticking the paper to the wall.
Check that the correct type of adhesive has been used and applied generously. Ensure the wall surface is not too porous or dusty.
Seams are visible after painting.
Ensure the paper has been hung with tight seams. If minor gaps are present, they can sometimes be filled with a decorators caulk before painting.
