I did everything just right especially checking the lot numbers and color. All the numbers matched. As I got the paper up, out of three rolls, two were just right and one was slightly lighter. So I could remove it, take a picture and go back to Lowe's and get an exchange, or just live with it. Everyone that sees it will notice the color change. Hopefully Lowe's will be kind and help me out. That was a lot of work to have to redo it.
I went to Lowe's and they gave me my money back for two rolls and gave me a new roll. I took samples from my light and dark rolls with me. We layed out three different rolls at Lowe's and I took the darker roll home to replace the lighter roll. Lowe's was great and really good about the frustration I was feeling. I took down the lighter roll and put up the new one. It turned out darker than what I had up already. I am done and tired. Maybe I'll jus get used to it and now worry about it anymore. I can not say I am completely happy with the product. I will say it was super easy to remove.
Hi. Do I need to Prime my wall first? It’s painted in an eggshell finish but I took the builder grade closet racks out and had to patch and sand quite a few holes. Not sure if I can apply right over that.
Hi there! This is a great question. For the best application (renter-friendly and damage-free), typically we recommend that the surface you are installing your peel and stick wallpaper onto is smooth and free of imperfections. Painted surfaces are best, but please do wait about 4-6 weeks for the paint to fully cure, or follow paint manufacturer's curing time guide. Be sure that the paint/primer you use is regular paint, non-stick is not recommended! Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions! -WallPops
On another channel they suggested that you use an old fashioned black chalkboard eraser instead of that hard plastic that they're suggesting you use. That makes a lot of sense to me.
That way they don't get sued because they told you to turn the electricity off and you accidentally went to deep and cut into a wire and electrocuted yourself.
You never showed how to handle a corner. Like do you trim down and if so to what measurement and do you leave an overlap like you did on the first one? Would have been an actual tutorial had you done that.
Hi Rick - It does seem like a long time, however it's important to let the paint fully cure to reduce the risk of fusing with the adhesive and damaging paint upon removal. Hope this helps!
Worst paper I have ever tried to install, clean flat walls, will not adhere. Sticks to itself beautifully, won’t come apart. Bought a bamboo pattern….zero ability to align with next sheet…so looks like you have separate sheets of wallpaper up..first one peeled down from the top and stuck to itself while I was working on the bottom…time to rent a texture gun…enjoy my $140
Hi Brendan - We're so sorry to hear about your experience with the wallpaper. It sounds incredibly frustrating, and that's not the standard we aim for. This may be due to a defective batch, as we take great pride in the quality of our peel & stick products. We’d love to resolve this for you. Please reach out to us on social @wallpops or send an email to customercare@brewsterhomefashions.com, and we’ll be in touch to make things right! Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to fix this as soon as possible.

The best idea I'm going to return the wallpaper 😂
You gave me my first laugh out loud today.
I understand overlapping the sides but why not leave the top and bottom untrimmed for a while doesn’t it shrink as well..
Can peel and stick be applied to Polywall plastic panels?
Yes! As long as it’s smooth, clean, dry and flat, you can install this on it.
Is there a way to get a previous lot number?
On another channel they suggested that you use an old fashioned black chalkboard eraser instead of that hard plastic that they're suggesting you use. That makes a lot of sense to me.
This is a great idea! We recommend you use whatever works for you to get the bubbles out for a smooth and beautiful application!
Use a laser level
Why turn off main power? Can't you just cut out the section for switches like drywall
That way they don't get sued because they told you to turn the electricity off and you accidentally went to deep and cut into a wire and electrocuted yourself.
Why not just shut it off to be safe?

Yall never used super sticky paper huh?
It begins to peel over time and doesn’t stick
Excess paper 😂😂😂 half a roll guys
extremely hard to apply wallpaper with this technique, not satisfied with the property brothers this time🤬
Haha lmao
That’s assuming your reference wall is perfectly straight….
a month to let paint dry? lol

Who can wait a month for paint to dry 🙄
I hear if you watch the paint dry it goes faster…wait lemme check my resources don’t quote me on that just yet 😳
