Hello, you must apply wallpaper gradually and gently from the center outward to ensure bubble-free adhesion. Almost 8 months ago, because of the financial crisis, I planned to install wallpaper. I attempted to apply wallpaper myself and ended up with ugly air bubbles destroying the smooth surface. Later, I hired a professional to do the job and observed how to stick wallpaper without bubbles. So, I am sharing the detailed steps below.
How can You Stick Wallpaper without Bubbles?
First, you clean the wall to remove dust or loose paint.
Let your wall dry and then use putty to fix cracks.
Use a brush or roller to evenly distribute glue on the wall.
Now, align the first strip carefully with the ceiling and press downward.
Using a wallpaper brush, carefully push air out as you go.
Move in clean strokes from the center to the edges.
If a bubble forms, lift the part slightly, reapply glue, and press it back down.
The professional said that for little trapped bubbles, you can gently pierce them with a pin and smooth them with a roller. Also, he kept the room temperature moderate to avoid direct airflow while applying.

Last month, I redecorated my room with wallpapers and struggled with air bubbles. My flatmate came forward to help me out but as it turned out, we both struggled together. It seemed almost impossible to get rid of the bubbles, but we figured a way out. I looked up online and found a few tricks that actually worked. I can share the same to help you understand how to stick wallpaper without bubbles.
How to Stick Wallpaper on Wall Without Bubbles?
You need to understand why the bubbles come out, so you can actually avoid them, or don’t make them worse. Here are a few do’s and don’ts you can follow.
Be Gentle
Gently pull up the wallpaper to release the trapped air, then smooth the panel back down. It sounds like an obvious thing to do but people often don’t take it seriously, like us. If you don’t do it slowly, you might stretch the material.
Flatten the Surface
Use a damp sponge to smoothly press the paper against the wall. You can also use a putty knife or a plastic scraper, especially for larger bubbles. We used a scraper to rub away the bubbles and it actually worked.
Don’t Use Hand
Do not use your hand or a squeegee to rub away the bubbles. You can use the squeegee to smooth the wallpaper down but don’t press out air bubbles. Using your hand to press them away will make it worse than actually fixing it.
I hope these tips help you figure out how to stick wallpaper without bubbles.
