How to glue wallpaper correctly

Having difficulty with wallpaper application? This post is here to help! Glueing wallpaper correctly is key to achieving a professional look without sacrificing cost. By following simple steps, wallpaper can be applied correctly every time. Firstly, clean the wall's surface by removing any debris and ensuring it is completely dried and even. Then, apply a thin and even coat of adhesive to the entire surface. Finally, roll the wallpaper on the wall, and enjoy a perfect finish! This method of glueing wallpaper is easy to do and will give you fantastic results.

Surface preparation:

For optimal adhesion, the surface must be dry, wallpaperable, clean and free from grease. Remove old, poorly adhered wallpaper and loose paint layers with a wallpaper remover. Fill cracks and holes with filler for interior use. Surfaces with increased hygroscopicity and crumbling surfaces should be pre-treated with a deep penetration primer, which makes it easier to change wallpaper.

Mode of application:

Pour the universal paste, stirring vigorously, into cold water and continue stirring for a while. After 30 minutes, stir again vigorously and the paste is ready for use..

* When applied to wallpaper:
Spread the wallpaper evenly, fold and let it soften. After some time, stick the wallpaper back to back as usual and roll it with a roller.

* When applied to a surface (only when using textile wallpaper):
Lightly moisten the cut wallpaper on the reverse side about 5 minutes before gluing to avoid the formation of air bubbles. Apply the paste evenly across the width of 1 – 2 strips of wallpaper using a sheepskin roller. Then put the wallpaper on a layer of glue and press down. After a short time, process the joints with a smooth joint roller.

Pay attention to the recommendations of the wallpaper manufacturer. Resistant to cement and lime. Rinse off the remaining paste immediately with water.

Storage: Store in a cool dry place! Keep container well closed!
