Description E•Z PASTE Universal Wallcovering and Border Adhesive is a synthetic polymer-based adhesive designed to hang all borders and wallcovering over any surface.
Prominent Features
  • For all borders and wallcovering (pre-pasted and unpasted)
  • For all surfaces except poor quality latex paint
  • Prevents lifting edges & curling corners
  • Eliminates messy water trays
  • Maximum adhesion
  • Ready-to-use (Do not dilute)
Uses

Recommended for hanging borders or wallcovering over sound latex paint or wallpaper. Can also be used to hang non-woven wallcovering (different hanging instructions.)

 

Limitations Keep from freezing.
Surface Preparation Surface must be clean, dry and free from dirt, dust, grease, oil, mildew, wax or loose paint. Check surfaces for paint bonding, damaged wallboard or plaster by cutting a small X with a sharp knife and attempt removal with a small piece of "Scotch" tape. Repair all unsound surfaces. Prime all surfaces (including oil-based coatings) with ALLPRO® ULTRA•PREP™ acrylic primer. Before proceeding with any unusual conditions, consult your adhesive or wallcovering supplier.
Application

Use only when the adhesive, wallcovering and surface temperatures are above 50ºF (10ºC). Do not dilute. Apply a uniform coat of adhesive with a brush or roller to one sheet at a time. Avoid contact with the surface of embossed, textured or delicate wallcoverings. Book according to the wallcovering manufacturer's instructions. Do not overbook.

HANGING NON-WOVEN WALLPAPERSurface must be primed with ALLPRO® ULTRA•PREP™ acrylic primer. Paste the wall with E•Z PASTE™. Hang wallcovering on the wall.

Clean Up Clean all equipment and wallcovering surfaces immediately after use with warm, clean water with frequent changes of water. Additional effort may be required if the adhesive is allowed to contact the surface of embossed or textured vinyls.
Disposal E•Z PASTE is water based and does not contain organic solvents. Place empty containers in normal refuse for disposal. Contact your local sanitation department or household hazardous waste coordinator for information concerning possible reuse or disposal of unused water based paints, primers or adhesives.
