Wheatpaste (also known as flour and water paste, flour paste, or simply paste) is a gel or liquid adhesive made from wheat flour or starch and water. It has been used since antiquity for various arts and crafts such as bookbinding,[1] découpage, collage, papier-mâché, and adhering paper posters and notices to walls.
