How do you remove wallpaper paste from wallpaper?

In: Home Improvement, Decorating [Edit categories]

Answer:

this is a good question, paste should be kept to the back of wallpaper by using all the paste table. when you paste wallpaper you should lay it on the table so the joining edge is right on the edge of the table, paste from the middle outwards, move the paper to other side of table and paste from the middle to edge again. then you will keep paste off the table If you keep paste off your paste table it will stay off your paper, if it gets on the face side wipe off asap with a damp cloth or sponge.. basically prevention is better than cure.
