When papering a length including a plug or switch, always turn the electricity supply
off at the mains. Then unscrew and loosen the plastic covering. It is unnecessary to
remove the cover completely.
Position the length of paper in a similar way to any other
length. Feel for the switch / plug location through the paper. From the centre of the
switch / plug, make a small hole with the scissors followed by diagonal / star-like cuts
to each corner. Hang the rest of the length first before cutting out the shape of the
switch / plug.
Cut the edges to enable just a fraction of paper to be screwed under the
plastic cover once it is replaced. Use the brush to push the paper behind the switch /
plug from all directions.
Check for any trapped air bubbles and then remove any excess
paste from the plastic cover with a cloth. When you are satisfied with the finish,
screw the fitting back and turn the electricity supply on.
