Before you begin painting the walls in your manufactured home you will need to decide if you want to leave the battens up or remove them. If your wallpaper is textured the texture may be visible even after the wall is painted.

The backing will stay on the wall. Be sure your vinyl is clean before applying paint by washing it with soap and water and rinsing well. Paint will not stick to a dirty surface. I ve hung and removed wallpaper for over 30 years.

It should remove in strips from the wall. Take a paint roller and water soak a strip. Smooth the paper back into place to adhere it firmly to the wall. To avoid this it is best to remove the wallpaper from the wall.

Check the can for exactly how. While you are waiting for the glue to soak wet the next strip. Wait for the primer to dry before painting over wallpaper. Apply wallpaper paste to the underside of peeled up corners and seams using a foam paintbrush.

Dry strips off the wall in one sheet no special steamers strippers or tools needed.

Water based paints and primer may reactivate the wallpaper glue resulting in unwanted peeling.

To avoid prime wallpaper with an oil based primer to seal the surface. You can also use a primer between the vinyl and the paint. Available in lines from sherwin williams benjamin moore and farrow ball. If your vinyl surface is clean the paint or primer will adhere to the vinyl rather than the dirt and you will have a longer lasting finish.

Give the water a minute to soak into the glue. Once the walls are clean and you ve applied the primer sealer give the walls enough time to dry. It may be best to just leave the wallpaper and paint over that this is not ideal but if the damage to the wall is going to be too much you have three options remove the panel and install sheetrock paint over the wallpaper or use some kind of texture over the wall to cover and blend in the areas the wallpaper has damaged. Taking them down and filling in the seams is a cumbersome job but the finished job will look great much more like the standard walls in stick built homes.
