Primer helps ensure your photo wallpaper adheres securely to the wall. It prevents the wallpaper glue from being immediately absorbed by the wall, which is particularly helpful in new homes where walls often absorb a lot of moisture.

Using primer prevents your wallpaper from peeling off prematurely. Apply the primer to the wall and let it sit overnight. The next day, you can apply the wallpaper adhesive with confidence, knowing your wallpaper will stay firmly in place!
