Product Information

Full details

The Bartoline All Purpose Wallpaper Adhesive is designed for professional decorators and DIY enthusiasts who require a high-strength, consistent bonding solution for various wallcoverings including vinyl and heavyweight papers. Its primary benefit is the excellent slip, allowing for precise pattern matching before the adhesive sets firmly; however, users should note that it requires a specific mixing process and resting period to reach optimal consistency.

FAQs

Can I use this on vinyl wallpaper?

Yes, this adhesive is specifically formulated for vinyl, washable, and heavyweight wallcoverings.

How long does it take to prepare the mixture?

The initial mix takes 30 seconds, followed by a 3-minute resting period, and a final thorough stir.

Is this safe for 'paste the wall' applications?

Yes, it is fully compatible with both traditional 'paste the paper' and 'paste the wall' techniques.

How should I store leftover powder?

Store the remaining powder in a dry place, ensuring the sachet is sealed airtight to prevent moisture clumping.

Can I use this on a damp wall?

No, you must ensure the surface is completely clean and dry before application for the best results.

Is it easy to remove tools after the job is done?

Yes, as long as you clean all equipment with water immediately after you finish your work.

Troubleshooting

Lumps forming during the mixing process

Ensure you are sprinkling the powder into the water while stirring briskly, rather than dumping it all at once.

Wallpaper edges lifting after application

Ensure the edges were pasted generously enough and allowed to soak to the correct consistency before hanging.

Adhesive is too thin

Check the water-to-powder ratio; if the mixture is too thin, you may have used too much water.
