How to Use Bartoline All Purpose Wallpaper Adhesive

Materials Needed

• Bartoline All Purpose Wallpaper Adhesive
• Wallpaper
• Water
• Mixing bucket
• Paste brush or roller
• Sharp knife or wallpaper scissors
• Wallpaper smoother or brush

Preparation

1. Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and free from dust and grease.
2. Fill any holes or cracks and sand smooth.
3. Measure the wall height and cut the wallpaper to size, leaving a little extra for trimming.

Mixing the Adhesive

1. Fill a mixing bucket with the recommended amount of cold water. Refer to the adhesive packaging for specific measurements.
2. Sprinkle the adhesive powder into the water slowly while stirring continuously.
3. Stir the mixture thoroughly to ensure there are no lumps.
4. Leave the mixture to stand for a few minutes until it thickens to a creamy consistency.

Applying the Adhesive

1. Lay the wallpaper face down on a clean surface.
2. Using a paste brush or roller, apply the adhesive evenly onto the back of the wallpaper.
3. Ensure all edges are well-pasted.
4. Fold the paper by bringing the ends toward the middle (also known as “booking”) and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the adhesive to penetrate.

Hanging the Wallpaper

1. Start from the top of the wall and align the edge of the wallpaper with your marked guideline.
2. Smooth the wallpaper onto the wall using a wallpaper smoother or brush, working from the center outwards to remove air bubbles.
3. Trim any excess paper at the top and bottom using a sharp knife or wallpaper scissors.
4. Wipe away any excess adhesive with a damp sponge or cloth.

Finishing Touches

1. Repeat the process for additional rolls, carefully aligning the pattern at the seams.
2. Allow the wallpaper to dry completely before applying any finishing touches or decorations.
