Review: A regular purchase - Professional paper hanger
Review: Very good quality! - Easy to apply sizing and wallpaper adheres to product and stays once dried. After applying the sizing to the wall, let dry about 1-2 hours. It will be tacky after drying, then apply the wallpaper. Easy soap and water cleanup. No smell and covers a lot. I still have 3/4 gallon after papering my bathroom.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long to set before I can wallpaper over it?**
A: 30-45 minutes until it dries and becomes tacky.

**Q: Can I use acrylic paint on top of Roman 999?**
A: yes

**Q: What is the dry time?**
A: To get the desired result ie. protect the surface and get increased slip and slide, let it dry overnight.  However, in a pinch, putting box fans on the area will generally expedite drying time (3+ hours)and still allow the sealer do what it does so well

**Q: Will this work for 60 grit sanded down old formica dinner table that will be top coated with Behr paint and primer and then stonecoat epoxied?**
A: Hi Jim, PRO-999 Rx-35 is formulated to seal porous surfaces like drywall and joint compound. As Formica is a non-porous, sealed surface, PRO-999 may not be the best primer option for this project.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So easy for a first-time user
*by A***. on November 11, 2025*

I’ve always been intimidated to hang real wallpaper and have stuck to “peel and stick”, but using this was about a thousand times easier than peel and stick. It was forgiving to move the paper around, held well once dried and we are a few months in with no bubbles and no issues.
