wallpaper paste

Decorative paper adhesive

Wallpaper paste is an adhesive used to attach wallpaper to walls.

It's typically a powder mixed with water to form a thick, spreadable consistency.

The paste is applied to the paper or directly to the wall before hanging: Let the paste soak into the paper for a few minutes before applying.
