How to choose wallpaper for the kitchen?

What and how to choose wallpaper for the kitchen? This question arises quite often, because everyone knows that the kitchen is a place that is polluted most often and most. Therefore, when choosing wallpaper, you need to give preference to washable and durable, as well as beautiful wallpaper, for example, wallpaper for painting, vinyl wallpaper or silk screen printing.

Vinyl wallpapers are double layer. The underlying lower layer, consisting of paper or non-woven, is glued to the wall, and the upper decorative layer is made of vinyl, which looks embossed due to heat treatment. Vinyl and wallpaper provides moisture resistance, durability and does not burn out. Mud and soot are removed perfectly from such wallpapers, as a thick vinyl layer has a smooth and glossy surface.

Also, wallpaper for painting is issued in the same two-layer, the top layer of which is foamed vinyl (it needs to be painted), and the bottom layer consists of non-woven or paper. The production of ready-made colored wallpaper for painting has been arranged.

Not only the material of the wallpaper plays a decisive role in their selection, but also the color.

For a small kitchen, the best choice would be to stick on a light-colored wallpaper with the ability to visually enlarge a room.

Warm-colored wallpapers will suit darkened kitchens or kitchens with windows to the north.

If the windows of the kitchen are facing south, it is better to prefer wallpaper in cool colors.

Wallpaper pattern is also important. For example, a small kitchen from wallpapers with large drawings will become even more tiny. Try to choose a wallpaper with an unobtrusive and calm pattern, so that soon there is no desire to tear them off the walls!

Now you have to choose wallpaper glue, which is special and universal. Special glue is perfect for vinyl wallpapers, but it costs a little more than universal glue suitable for other types of wallpaper.

And now the walls of the kitchen shine with the freshness and novelty of the wallpaper. But soon they will begin to be covered with a layer of cooking oil and soot.

To fight for the cleanliness of the wallpaper, in particular vinyl, you need to use universal cleaners - liquid or gel.

Wallpaper for painting (paper, fiberglass, vinyl, non-woven) will tolerate wet cleaning, if the quality of the paint allows it. Wallpaper painted with water-based paint can be slightly wiped with a damp cloth; wallpaper with applied acrylic, water-dispersed, latex paint will allow you to wash yourself more thoroughly with warm water mixed with non-abrasive universal means.

Now you know what wallpaper you better choose for the kitchen, so that after completing the repair, enjoy the work of your own hands with pleasure!

Good luck to you.
