Advanced Technique: Double-Cut for Perfect Overlaps

For those looking to achieve an even more professional finish, particularly when working with overlapping wallpaper or mural panels, the double-cut technique is invaluable. This method ensures that your overlaps are virtually invisible.

Understanding the Double-Cut Technique

The double-cut technique involves overlapping two sections of wallpaper or mural and cutting through both layers at once. This creates a perfect match at the seams, making them appear seamless.

Executing the Double-Cut

1. Apply the first panel and then overlay the second panel on top, ensuring a 2-inch overlap for proper pattern alignment.
2. Use a straight edge and a sharp utility knife to cut through both layers of the wallpaper along the overlap.
3. Gently remove the excess pieces from both layers, then smooth down the edges to ensure they adhere perfectly, leaving no visible seam.

Tips for a Successful Double-Cut

• Always use a sharp blade to ensure a clean cut without tearing the paper.
• Be precise and gentle when removing the excess paper to avoid damaging the wallpaper.
• Practice this technique on spare pieces before attempting it on your wall to ensure confidence and precision.
