Is the thickness of wallpaper important if papering over embossed wallpaper? Will the pattern show through?

Would definately not paper over paper , always better to strip and give the walls a fill and rub down before re-papering, especially embossed paper hope this helps David King

It will definitely show through if you paper over it, Do do the job properly it is always vital to take the old stuff off, prepare the walls by filling/sanding etc. then repapering.

yes it will show through i would remove the embossed paper first to do the job correctly

Its best to strip off old paper and do it properly!

Yes it will, I would not do it,strip the paper it's the only way to guarantee results but if you are going to paper over then coat the wall with pva then cross line with a 1400 - 1700 grade lining paper before hanging the paper.

It must come off, the embossed paper will show through... As we say "if your to do a job then do it right" then you can't go wrong! Tim

never paper over any paper really let alone embossed papers
