I am wallpapering the kitchen and have just the external door area to finish. I do not really want to wallpaper the door reveal, as in a previous house I found that this area gets exposed to rain, draughts and sunlight as you open the door and ultimately tends to peel off. The surface is in bumpy condition, anyway. I was thinking of painting the door reveal with white emulsion. Any rain ingress can then be wiped off easily. This leaves the problem of papering neatly round the the door reveal (not *into* it). As far as I can see, it will need accurate trimming to leave a neat, straight edge. Something I am not good at!
Anyone else done this?
