Pasting Tips

Follow the same procedure and sequence every time you book a field or roll a strip.

When you book a field or roll a pasted strip make sure the end that will hang up to the ceiling is on the top of a fold or the outside of the roll.

Lay a booked strip down to relax facing the same direction every time.

For un-pasted wall coverings you can use a standard premixed pasted unless it is recommended to use a heavy-duty paste.

Lay out one or more strips on the pasting table and ensure all the strips are oriented the same direction and that the pattern side is facing down.
Place the top of the first strip at one end of the table and apply the paste to at least the top half of the paper.
Book the top half of the strip by folding the pasted surfaces together.
Slide the booked end down the table so you can paste and book the rest of the strip.
