Abstract: For preparing pre-pasted wallpaper for hanging against a flat surface, the pre-pasted wallpaper is contacted with warm water which contains a composition including a wetting agent such as a dialkyl ester sulfosuccinic acid derivative, with possibly an agent enabling the wetting agent to dissolve in water and also a water softening agent. The net result is an improved adhesiveness over standard contact with warm water alone.
