Wallpaper craziness

[medpedspouse]

Wow - I just have to say I am so impressed. I am such a dawkter's wife that I wimped out and hired someone to deal with the wallpapered kitchen and bathrooms after just trying to do this in the guest bathroom. Ides, I think you rock! Failure is working on a wall all day long and not getting the damn paper off, crying out of frustration and then having to pay someone to finish your f-up.

I'm pretty much done removing the wallpaper. The wall looks worse than I hoped but it will be skim coated so I'm not worrying too much. The pink painted paper was definitely oil paint. That crap was brittle as hell. I had quite a bit of luck chiseling it off with a paint scrapper. There are a few more spots to chisel and a wall dude is coming over tomorrow to see about skim coating.
