- Brewster 497-96294 Hessian Burlap Texture Wallpaper, Paintable

Just as described. Came quickly

This is the most maddening, horrific and cheapest wallpaper I have ever used. I guess they say you get what you pay for. I was trying to hang 8 foot strips of this wallpaper, having kept it in the water for just five seconds and immediately took it out, doubled it over like it was told in the directions to do and it ripped in half across the middles while I was trying to hang it. I’ve hung a lot of wallpaper and never ever had this issue. You would try to pick it up and it would rip at the top you try to cut it. It was tearing. Couldn’t return it because I had already used a roll trying to figure out what I was doing incorrect.

Good, quality paper but requires a lot of glue to stick and it requires skill to cut. No seam matching needed for this paper.

Product is good over all, but don't believe the claim "can paper over imperfections, even paneling". Yes, it will adhere to the prepared paneling surface, but vertical lines are going to show through. The stuff IS good, but NOT a magic wand ! A second caution is that when painting, seams do rise, even with extra paste used. My monitor showed the original wallpaper color as white, when it is actually a beige (sort of) color. I do regret that I didn't leave it as that color instead of painting it.

I was trying to update my kitchen cabinets by applying a textured panel to the flat center panel on my kitchen cabinet doors. The surface layer of this paper separated from the back layer when it got wet. Both layers of the product appear to be ordinary paper, not vinyl. This product made a terrible mess. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

covered up a multitude of sins on some really BAD drywall work - sorry honey stick with concrete.

THIS was the texture I wanted to simulate watercolour paper. It's very durable and easy to work with.
