Powder adhesive
Powder adhesive comes as a dry mix that you blend with water to create the paste yourself. It’s great because you can adjust the thickness to suit your wallpaper project. Simply stir the powder into water and, after a few minutes, you’ll have a smooth, strong glue. It’s powerful enough to hold the wallpaper securely to the wall, yet gives you enough time to adjust and reposition before it dries.

Ready-to-use adhesive
Ready-to-use wallpaper adhesive is exactly what it sounds like — a pre-mixed glue that you can use straight from the pot or tube. No need to mix or wait, just open the lid and start applying. It’s usually a bit thicker and perfect if you want to get started right away without any prep time. Ideal for smaller wallpaper projects or when you just want a quick, clean job. It’s a bit more expensive than powder adhesive, but it saves both time and mess.
