ROMAN PRO-838 Heavy Duty Clear Wallpaper Adhesive, for Commercial Weight Wallcoverings, Wall Carpet, Non-Wovens, and More, 1 Gallon (300 sq. ft.)

I was told this was the best brand to buy for wallpaper so I purchased it on Amazon and it came in very quickly very easy to use it dries quickly. It’s very thick in the bucket and doesn’t drip everywhere and it goes on the wall easily. It is a little messy so you just have to be careful when using it not to let it get all over but to me that would happen with any type of glue. Quality is amazing and it holds the wallpaper in place. The size of the bucket is a little bigger than a paint bucket.

This was really easy to work with. It's a thick gel that rolls on nicely and no strong odor. It was easy enough to move our wallpaper around to get it in the right spot and seems to be holding really well. We ran back over the seems a little after applying because we have textured walls and wanted the extra security.

I used the Roman Pro-838 Heavy Duty wall paper adhesive to install a full wall mural. The mural is heavy vinyl and did not come pre-pasted. I had never installed wall paper that needed a brush/roll-on adhesive, but this went swimmingly well. A little bit of a learning curve to know how much is enough and how much is too much, but after the first two strips, the rest was a breeze. tacky enough that the paper doesn't unroll and still able to move it a little to get the pattern and edges aligned just right.I would definitely recommend this product for installing medium to heavy weight wall paper.

Just as advertised! The paste consistency allowed me to put a large office mural up in my husband's office without help! It works well! Adhesive quality is great!

Absolutely great heavy duty glue, but a bit of a “wet dog” smell. It’s very thick consistency, which makes it just a tiny bit hard to paint on, but not a problem, because it gives amazing results. I use this for all my silk and cloth like wallpaper. I recently had to remove one of my wall mural with this glue and it was very easy. Cleaning the glue was not as bad either. A steam cleaner would come in handy as well. I however had no difficulties with a bucket of hot water, dishwashing liquid and couple tablespoons of baking soda, and a double sided sponge with a rough side. Overall great glue and adhesion. I highly recommend it and have purchased many so far.

I ordered this to help adhere pre-pasted wallpaper to paneling, after which I mounted on the ceiling of my entry. Sounds strange, but it was paintable, textured wallpaper that looks just like ceiling tiles and was cheaper than buying ceiling panels. I tried just using the wallpaper and water method like the instructions said, but the wallpaper didn't stick very well and was flimsy once it got wet. So here's what I did: I poured some of this wallpaper adhesive into a paint pan and added some water to make it a little more runny. I didn't think it needed to be quite as thick as it was - kind of a cross between Elmer's school glue and rubber cement. This is totally clear and like a gel.I then used a 4" paint brush and brushed the adhesive on the paneling in small sections, pressing the wallpaper on as I went to smooth out bubbles or wrinkles. I did not wet the wallpaper first. It worked great! I could reposition the wallpaper by lifting it up and moving it slightly and then pressing it down again, and it did not rip the wallpaper like it had when I was using only water. I let it sit for a few hours (I didn't have the paneling on the wall at this time, it was laying down on sawhorses). After a few hours I set the panels up on edge propped against the wall and let them dry overnight. The next day I installed the paneling on my ceiling, and it turned out very good. The wallpaper stuck and I now have a textured ceiling, ready to paint.Cleanup was very easy - the glue washed out of my paint brush with simply warm water (although I added some dish soap just to make sure), and it wasn't sticky or anything after the brush was dry. You can't tell I used the brush to apply glue. Same with the paint pan, rinsed out with warm water.I also like that this glue is clear and dries clear. I got a bit of glue on the wrong side of the wallpaper and it dried clear and you can't tell that there is glue there. I found this very easy to use, I didn't use the whole gallon (although I may have if I hadn't mixed it with water), and would definitely recommend this to make ANY wallpapering job so smoother. Much easier than the dip in water method.

I'm a seasoned DIYer, I've hung peel and stick wallpaper before. Never had I hung real wallaper that needed paste. Wallpaper is expensive so I was very worried about hanging it. I used this paste and it was soooo easy. It has harly any odor, the texture is similar to yogurt and it goes on very well. I rolled It onto the wall like paint and then hung the wallpaper up. It was so easy to do, and the if you put enough paste on the wall you have time to manipulate the wallpaper to where it needs to be with minimal struggle. It doesn't dry so fast that it's irritating and it's water clean up, so wiping up paste from the edges of the wallpaper was a breeze. I will definitely be buying this product again.

Great stuff! Worked like a charm for a heavier felt covering on a large wall! Made our project UBER easy!
