How do you strip wall paper from the wall in preparation to paint?

Buy a steam wallpaper stripper - when we bought our house (which was built in 1929), the entire place was covered in PAINTED wallpaper, which 3 layers of wallpaper in the ceilings in the living rom %26amp; dining room. We stripped the entire house without chemicals - just this steamer. It's easy, you might want to buy a tool that marks the wallpaper - it's called a scorer (not necessary but helps) - makes little lines in the wallpaper so the steam gets under better. Score your walls,let the steamer warm up until the water is boiling and place on the wallpaper for a couple seconds, scrape off and move into the next chunk!

i remove it slowly so that there is no spot , which may appear on the new paint
A new bold wall is their first we mix a whit he cement %26amp; after that we should strip wall paper from the wall be to be paint
use a sponge to get it wet then it should be easy to peel off
They have these things you can run over wallpaper that put lots of tiny holes in it. Ask about it at any hardware or home improvement store.





Then spray warm water on it and let it sit for a few minutes. Let it get good and soggy. Then take a putty knife and scrape it off. Depending on how good a job was done by the original paperer, it may just peel off.
use baby oil. that sould take out anything
Warm water. Apply the water to the wallpaper with a wet sponge so it soaks in. Then peal away. After you have removed all the wallpaper, paint the walls with a layer of primer first. This will protect the walls and prevent the paint from chipping and peeling off.
Score the wallpaper so you can get moisture in to it, I just redone two bathrooms and I put hot water and white vinegar in the bottle and sprayed the wallpaper after scoring let it set for a few minutes then sprayed again and started peeling the wallpaper off, learned this trick from a professional wallpaper hanger.


When you have all the wallpaper off wash down the walls with a product called TSP can be purchased at any wallpaper store or Walmart... Good Luck
Steam cleaner or you can go to any hardware store and get a scorer (it rips the wallpaper a little bit) After your done that buy this goop stuff, it should be with all the wallpaper accessories and spray it on there. Leave set for a couple of minutes and use a putty knife to get it off.
Try wetting it in the hard to remove places..
Use a sand paper, but dont over use it, u might damage the wall!!





cheers
They sell specific liquid solutions for this. Hot water and soap will also work but not as effectively. Apply the product with a sponge and let it set for a bit, then use a scraper. For real problem removal, use sandpaper first, then the product. Whatever you do, DO NOT use a heating/steam gun on it.





I had to do that once in a place where the very clever people put up wallpaper over wallpaper x6. It took off chunks of the sheet-rock itself. Total disaster.





If you have only one layer of paper on a steamer should work fine. Econimically, go for the liquid product. Works just as well for far less $.
There's a device with spiked wheels/rollers you roll over the wallpaper first to score the wallpaper. After you finish, putting the tiny holes in the wall paper with the device, then take a sponge and soak it warm water. Run the sponge over the wall paper to wet the wallpaper. Allow the water to break down the wallpaper glue for at least a half hour then start working on pulling the wallpaper off.
A putty knife and a steamer. Plan to be there all day and don't rush. Remember you will have to do some patching afterwords, do this with drywall mud and sand screens. Good Luck
use soap water first then use sand paper then vote for me
Engage a painter, he will do it for you.
Steam it (to loosen up the paste), you may need to go over the paper with a wall paper ';cutter'; (this will allow the steam to pass through the wall paper) this will allow you to pull the wall paper off. After the wall paper is all off, wash the wall throughly to remove all paste residue.





Good luck...it is quite a job!
Wet the Wall and use polish paper to solve u r problem simple
bfore u strip it off, splash some warm water, it helps to remove them easily, cause the glue loses the adhesive power with water.
First peal off the outter layer then Use a spray bottle with hot water and let it soak for a few seconds then use a putty knife to scrap off
just boil some water than dip your hand in it with some cloth and then rip to wallpaper and automaticlly wallpaper gets out
