Difficult cutting wallpaper..

[ray316]

l have some wallpaper which l'm finding hard to trim with a blade or scissors ...
It has small beads in the decorative pattern and is width is wider than normal at 27"..
When it comes to cutting/ trimming the wallpaper it can't get a first time straight cut, l have to keep on going over the cut line as l presume the small beads are making it difficult to cut straight away..
Any suggestions for best cutting tool or best blades to use..
I have been using Stanley blades and a decent pair of scissors....

Stanley blades and metal ruler or line. Make sure you use a decent blade brand and throw away the blade every four cuts (two with each end of the blade).

Some papers demand ultra sharp cutting and won't cope with the same blade being used constantly.

Otherwise go and spend a decent amount on some pro wall paper scissors.
