Product Information

Full details

Bartoline Easipaste is a ready-mixed wallpaper adhesive designed for DIY enthusiasts and professional decorators tackling any wallpaper type, including vinyl, heavy embossed, and 'paste the wall' varieties. Its key benefit is the no-mixing, easy-spread formula that provides strong grab and allows for easy adjustment of wallpaper during application, simplifying the hanging process. A potential caveat is the need to prepare very porous surfaces beforehand to ensure optimal adhesion.

FAQs

Do I need to mix Bartoline Easipaste?

No, Bartoline Easipaste is a ready-mixed formula, so no mixing or dilution is required. It is ready to use straight from the container.

What types of wallpaper can I use this paste with?

Easipaste is suitable for all types of wallcoverings, including vinyl, blown vinyl, heavy embossed, washables, and 'paste the wall' wallcoverings.

How much wallpaper does 1kg of Easipaste cover?

Approximately one 10-meter roll of standard wallcovering, or half a roll of embossed or heavy embossed wallcovering.

What surface preparation is needed?

Surfaces must be sound, dry, clean, and free from dust and grease. Gloss painted surfaces should be sanded. Very porous surfaces (like new plaster) should be sealed first with PVA or size.

How should I apply the paste for 'paste the wall' wallpapers?

Apply Easipaste evenly and generously directly onto the wall surface, making sure the pasted area is slightly wider than the wallpaper width.

What should I do if I get paste on the front of the wallpaper?

Immediately remove any paste that comes into contact with the patterned side of the wallcovering using a clean, damp cloth.

Can I store leftover paste?

Yes, store any leftover paste in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place. Ensure the lid is securely fastened.

Troubleshooting

Wallpaper is not sticking well.

Ensure the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, sealed if porous). Check that enough paste was applied and that it was evenly distributed, especially at the edges. For heavy papers, ensure sufficient booking time was allowed.

Bubbles or an uneven finish after application.

Gently try to smooth out the wallpaper with a clean brush or roller towards the nearest edge. If the paste is still wet, you may be able to lift and reposition the paper. Ensure no excess paste was left on the patterned side, which can cause issues.

Wallpaper appears to be sliding excessively during hanging.

This indicates the 'easy slide' properties are working well. Ensure you are aligning seams accurately and apply gentle pressure to secure the paper. The strong grab will take hold as it dries.

Paste is difficult to spread.

Ensure the product has not dried out. If stored incorrectly, it may become lumpy. If the paste is simply thick, a little more pressure with a roller or brush will usually suffice. Ensure you are using a suitable applicator (e.g., a paste brush or roller).

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Preparation:

Before applying Bartoline Easipaste, ensure all surfaces are sound, dry, clean, and free from dust, grease, and dampness. For surfaces previously painted with gloss paint, lightly sand them to create a better key for the adhesive. If you are applying wallpaper to very porous surfaces such as new plaster or unsealed drywall, it is crucial to seal them first using a PVA solution or wallpaper size. This prevents the porous surface from absorbing too much moisture from the paste, which can lead to poor adhesion.

Application:

To open the container, break the seal and lift the lid. Always refer to the specific instructions provided by your wallpaper manufacturer.

  • For traditional wallcoverings: Apply Easipaste evenly and generously to the reverse side of the wallpaper using a brush or roller. Ensure complete coverage, paying close attention to the edges. Be careful to avoid getting adhesive on the patterned side of the paper. If using heavy or embossed wallpapers, allow a short 'booking time' for the paste to soak into the paper until it becomes pliable.
  • For 'paste the wall' wallcoverings: Apply Easipaste directly and evenly onto the wall surface. Ensure the pasted area is slightly wider than the width of your wallpaper strip.

Immediately wipe away any adhesive that comes into contact with the patterned side of the wallcovering using a clean, damp cloth.

Care:

Store the adhesive in its original, tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place, away from extreme temperatures and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Clean up any spills immediately with water. Once dry, the adhesive is permanent.
