stripping wallpaper
Hi, not sure if this is the right place for this topic. I am trying to remove paper by scoring and spraying remover. It is going very slow. Is steaming that much different?

G'Day Speedie,
A wallpaper steam will eatthe job, used one a couple of times and worked a treat.
Also used warm water with a little vinegar will help clean the last of the glue off the wall.
Hope that helps.
Cheers, crowie

There are wall papers and then there are wall papers. Some will come easier then others even when steamed. Yes using a steamer will make a difference, just make sure you can vent the room. Depending on the wall paper and how well it has been put on you may need several passes with the steamer.
