Help!! - I want to know if I need to glue size the lining paper (once dried) before I hang the normal vertical lengths of wallpaper to it.
Thanks

Nope..lining paper has the perfect surface to paper over...sizing wont harm it but you may find the paste hangs around too long when you paper over it thus possibly causing bubbles or seems lifting.
