If you choose the wrong wallpaper for wallpaper, then often, after a certain time, this leads to a backlog of the paintings, as well as the appearance of an unpleasant smell.

Today's market has a large selectionwallpaper, there are even such types that are produced with the adhesive composition already applied on them. To activate this layer, simply moisten the base with water. But still, most of the wallpaper, as before, is fixed in a simple way - with the help of glue.

There is a large selection of adhesive compounds fordifferent kinds of wallpaper, but not all of them meet all the desirable merits: one kind of environmentally friendly, but practically does not keep the canvas, the other sticks so that it is simply impossible to tear it off, but it has a doubtful composition.

Adhesive for wallpaper can be divided into two types -universal and special. The first is designed for gluing walls with any kind of wallpaper, the second is used for products that have a vinyl coating. The instructions for use, which are printed on the packaging, indicate which wallpapers it is designed for, they can be light or heavy. By the term "lungs" are meant their paper varieties. "Heavy" - all the rest (acrylic, vinyl, textile, etc.).

High-quality adhesive for wallpaper, with its correctselection and use, firmly holds the canvases on the wall for five years. The indicator of quality is that when tearing off the glued canvases they will tear along the paper, and not along the seam.

When deciding the question of which adhesive for wallpaperbetter, you need to consider some of the raw data. Namely, from what material the wallpaper and wall are made, what weight the wallpaper has, and the critical parameters of the glue. An important factor is the humidity and temperature in the room.

Thin, lightweight paper wallpaper is glued usingconventional CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) glue. For this kind of canvas is the most suitable and sufficiently high-quality option. The acquisition of an expensive adhesive composition will simply be an empty expenditure of funds. For a duplex that has a high paper density, it is better to use a universal adhesive that is slightly more expensive, but has a higher adhesive capacity.

Vinyl or jute wallpaper is attached tospecial glue, in its composition, besides the basic components, there are also fungicidal additives that prevent the formation of mold under the product. Of course, you can glue these wallpapers and with the use of universal compounds, but then you will need to prepare a solution with a higher concentration, which will lead to an increase in the consumption of dry matter.

Adhesive for wallpaper on non-woven basis alsobelongs to the category of special. A feature of its application is that it is applied directly to the surface of the wall, which can significantly reduce its consumption.

Wallpaper glue, which includesantiseptics, it is recommended to use on unheated surfaces (external walls), since these additives prevent the formation of bacteria, mold and fungus under the products.
