Wallpaper Adhesive

Over the last 20-30 years the contents of wallpaper adhesive has tremendously changed. Today 90% of wallpaper is vinyl coated; vinyl laminated to a paper backing or vinyl laminated to a fabric backing. Most wall wallpapers pasted on the commercial buildings are solid vinyl or fabric backed vinyl.

POLYFIX ® wall paper adhesive is a specially formulated wallpaper adhesive, which offers a feeling of tack. This product feels tacky when wet. Curing time is very slow and adjusted after getting practical experience of fixing wallpapers. This tacky feeling was deliberately included in the product as the air bubbles can be removed easily by just pressing the rubber wiper, especially on a slick or new surface. It is cost effective and convenient to apply.
