Duckboots Help! Wallpaper disaster! any tips? (31) Help! Wallpaper disaster! any tips? 30 Nov 00


I know that musical questions get answered pretty fast here, so I'm hoping someone can bail me out. I thought I'd re-paint the kitchen while Rick was down in the States touring with the patons, but disaster has already struck.

I managed to steam off some very old wallpaper but it seems the layer with the glue ( maybe they used cement!) is still there. In short the walls are a mess. I've been trying to soak and scrape the residue off, but it's just resulting in a lot of scrape marks which I'm going to have to poli-fill in. Will ordinary wallpaper paste remover work or is there some really heavy-duty product I need to get. Any tips or family secrets appreciated.
