OK here y'all go Sorry it took me a while, but I had to clean up after all of this fun and that took longer than expected

So here you go, how to remove wallpaper! FUN FUN

Picture #1 shows what the old wallpaper looked like. It was't too bad as far as wallpaper goes, rather countryish, but out with it already! You can also see my FABULOUS 40 yr old linoleum floor!!! That is getting ripped up next

Picture #2 shows what happens after you peel the first (decorative) layer off the wall. It leaves you wish a paper/adhesive backing. Using a paint roller, you 'roll on' the adhesive remover. I'm using Zinnser DIF, great stuff and worked very well for me. Mind you this wallpaper isn't 40 years old, so I might have had to do something difference otherwise.

Pictures #3, #4, #5, #6, and #7 shows the messy step SCRAPING!!! You have to scrape the stuff off. It never comes off in full chunks, so you have to just scrape the heck out of it. Whats left behind is an adhesive sticky mess that you must go BACK OVER with the roller and scrap the adhesive off. This could take 4 or 5 passes to get the adhesive fully removed. [NOTE: You might see the beaters Yellow Ion bulbs in pic #7 ]

Picture #8 shows what the floor looks like after a few hours of scraping

Picture #9 shows the next wall waiting to be scraped. FUN FUN

Picture #10 shows the paste you have to scrape off AFTER you remove the adhesive backing....wallpaper adhesive is very relentless, it doesn't want to go away

Picture #11 is a finished wall I did yesterday. Note the SLIME GREEN the original owner had. She lives there 36 years, and I'm betting thats the original color!!! Also notice the beige that was underneath the wallpaper, as well as the 'pink' around the phone hanging on the wall which I believe is the original 1967 color.

If someone wants to edit my post and embed these images, go ahead and do so, I'm too tired and lazy to do it

So there ya have it! Welcome to my fun this weekend!
