Overview

Zinsser Wallpaper Cover-Up is an all-in-one coating perfect for painting over wallpaper to cover strong print and can be used under any coloured emulsion. It seals the wallpaper, protecting it from moisture within the paint, so no blistering or bubbling and dries to smooth, off white matt finish. Offers excellent stain blocking qualities which stop seeping stains such as smoke, damp and other water soluble stains.
