ᐅ Smooth fleece / painter’s fleece / renovation fleece – Surface irregularities

Hello everyone,

Our house, including the interior finishing, was completed by our builder in December 2017, and we have now been living in our home for 6 months. However, there are 2-3 issues that still bother me or that I am not sure are considered normal.

Throughout the entire house, the builder applied a type of wallpaper called painter's fleece (also known as smooth fleece or renovation fleece), and we paid around 10,000 euros for this.

We have recessed ceiling lights/spots on many floors, and as a layperson, when the sun shines or the spotlights shine directly on the walls, it looks like the walls have “cellulite.” In other words, you can clearly see unevenness. I’m not sure if it’s even possible to get a perfectly smooth finish with this wallpaper, and since I don’t know anyone else who has used this type of wallpaper on their walls, I thought I’d ask for your advice.

Thank you very much, best regards

We also used extra-thick fleece (190 grams) and filled in small uneven spots beforehand, and it turned out very nicely. Based on how it looks with you, I wouldn’t be satisfied either, but I’m not sure what else you could do now except redo it.

Best regards,
Sabine
