.PRODUCT APPLICATION .
SURFACE PREPARATION
Surfaces must be clean, dry, sound and free of dust,
grease, wax, oil, old wallcovering adhesive, mold and
mildew and other residue. Inspect the surface for paint
bonding, loose wallcoverings, damaged wallboard or
plaster. Remove old or loose wallcovering and residual
wallcovering adhesive with DIF® Wallpaper Stripper.
Repair unsound surfaces. Seal loose paint or damaged
drywall and cured skim coats with Gardz® High
Performance Sealer as needed.
PRIMING
Prime all surfaces (including oil-based paints, oil-based
primers or oil-based stain-kill coatings) with ShieldZ®

PRODUCT APPLICATION (cont.) .
Mold & Mildew
Eliminate pre-existing mold and mildew by washing the
affected area with a solution of ¾ cup of bleach to 1 gallon
of water. Wear protection to prevent skin and eye contact.
Quickly wash off any solution that comes in contact with
your skin. Do not add ammonia or other cleaning agents to
the bleach solution. Rinse surface with clean water. Allow
surface to dry thoroughly before applying wallcovering.
Drywall
Wipe down with a damp cloth to remove residual joint
compound dust prior to priming. No primer is required
when hanging strippable fabric backed vinyl wallcovering
over bare drywall. However, adhesive must fully cure
(approximately 4-6 weeks) prior to stripping. If uncertain,
priming is always recommended to ensure proper
performance.
Plaster
New plaster must age at least 90 days before hanging
wallcovering. Prime prior to installation.
Glossy Surfaces
Glossy paint, paneling, metal, glass, plastic, etc. should be
primed with ShieldZ Universal, ShieldZ Universal Plus,
ShieldZ Clear Acrylic Wall Size or ShieldZ Oil-Base
Wallcovering Primer prior to wallcovering installation.
Metal surfaces should be primed with rust inhibiting
Bulls- Eye® 1-2-3 Primer.
Existing Vinyl Wallcovering
This product is not intended for hanging wallcoverings
over existing vinyl wallcoverings without the use of a
primer. For hanging directly over vinyl without priming, use
SureGrip 127 Vinyl over Vinyl Wallcovering Adhesive
according to label directions. For hanging lightweight
wallpaper or borders directly over unprimed vinyl, use
SureGrip Universal Adhesive or SureGrip Border Adhesive
for Wallpapered Surfaces.
Textile/Delicate/Polyolefin/Polyester Backed
Wallcoverings
Take special care to keep the adhesive off the face of
textile or delicate wallcovering. Some wallcovering can be
stained by water alone. Test for stain resistance prior to
installation and hang according to manufacturer’s
instructions.
