Depending on the type of wallpaper
Experts say it is better to give preference to specialized species. They are produced taking into account the specifics of individual types of wallpaper, so it will be easier for a beginner to glue. There will be fewer problems with fixation. Working with universal formulations is more difficult, because it requires independent determination of the dilution density.

Applying glue and wallpapering
Before preparing the wallpaper sheets, you need to lay clean paper on the floor, measure the dimensions in advance, and cut the material according to them. If the canvases have large drawings or complex geometric images, then the joining of elements occurs on different wallpapers; cutting off the material is indispensable. If the pattern is not expressed and the mismatch of the parts is invisible, then they are not paid attention to when cutting. The finished sheets are stacked on top of each other, each sheet is placed face down slightly to the side of the previous one, they must lie for some time to straighten.
The glue must be applied with a roller or brush; the layer is made thick, protruding slightly beyond the edges of the canvas. If the instructions for the wallpaper indicate applying glue to the surface, then apply it to the wall at a distance sufficient for several sheets.
The company's products begin to set in 10-15 minutes, this allows you to correct the position of the material without problems.
