Solvite Paste The Wall Wallcoverings Adhesive, Wallpaper Adhesive for Smooth or Textured Back, Vinyl & Embossed Wallpapers, Easy to Use Wallpaper Paste, Strong Paste with High Yield, 5 Rolls, 1x230g

Excellent paste, super easy to mix.I used this with a heavy textured paper in the kitchen, pasting the wall as I went along. Don't overload your brush or roller but do ensure you put enough on to cover the entire area. *Also check your wallpaper states paste the wall on it.The paste spread well and the paper was easily adjusted into place.Less mess, less stickiness than the traditional paste the paper format.

Easy to mix easy to use

Used this to put up wallpaper and it was so much easier, faster and cleaner to use than pasting it onto the back of the wallpaper before hanging.It dries quite quick but you still have time to manoeuvre the wallpaper around to get it into the correct position. Wallpapers stayed up for over a week now so I’d say the paste is strong.Great value for money.

i have not papered in 20 years and this stuff is great. i do know how to paper but paste the wall was new to me and i wont be going back.my advice is:cut all your paper prior to hanging. top tip, always write "top" at the top of each drop with a pencil when cutting the paper.slowly pour the packet contents in and mix, mix, mix (i used one of those metal paint paddles in my drill) till it goes thick then keep mixing for about 20-30 secs after that then LEAVE to stand for a minimum of 5 min the MIX AGAIN at which point the paste will take on a more translucent colour (you will notice the difference).only apply the paste to the wall enough for one drop of wallpaper at a time. i used a brush for cutting in at top, sides and bottom and a roller to fill in the rest, i put the adhesive on like i would emulation paint. dont go mad and apply sparingly. you need to work fairly fast as the paste does dry a bit making it less slippy. i had a good 5 min to hang each drop.i hung two rolls of paper (6 matched drops) and i only used about 1/4 of the paste so should get 5 rolls easy.

Just what we needed

Got to say this is a far better way of papering your walls than paste the paper. I have always used the paste the paper way and always had slight imperfections, i.e bubbles, tears etc. With paste the wall I got professional results in half the time. First may I suggest you get the proper equipment, I highly recommend a Brayer/ink roller. I got the 150mm wide Essdee Brayer from Amazon, not only does it make your job easier it gives the professional joins that look invisible. The brayer is in place of the plastic scraper you would use to smooth the bubbles out.The brayer is far superior at doing this and is ideal if you are putting up textured of 3D paper, you don't end up damaging the pattern. I strongly recommend using a roller instead of a pasting brush, not only will it put the glue on evenly, but you will not miss spots. Roll the glue on horizontally first then go over vertically; do just over one paper width at a time. Use a Plumb line to hang the first piece straight, don't rely on the corner of your wall.If you are getting bubbles then you are not pasting the wall properly or your first piece is not straight. Once you have a piece up and pattern matched use the brayer to roll out excess paste and flatten the joins to a professional standard.I did get 5 rolls (20 square metres) of paper from one packet which I mixed with 5.5L of cold water. The biggest advantage of paste the wall is you do not need a pasting table which can get quite messy. I just used a roller and tray (get a small 5" paint brush to get into corners), I didn't need dust sheets or newspaper. The 3D wallpaper was a little heavy, but the glue kept it up easily, I had plenty of time to manipulate the paper into position to get the pattern match perfect. If you think about it, putting up dry wallpaper is much easier than trying to manipulate a 3m strip that is wet.Recommended, A Brayer, Clean roller and tray, Plumb line, Good wallpaper scissors, stanley knife, wallpaper brush.
