The wallpaper is coming off, eventually. Supposed to be one of those “tear off the top layer (the pattern) leaving behind the paper that you soak and simply remove” Yeah right, like that happens. Seems to be 3 layers that each need a good soak.
Hey ho. When I’ve done this, the walls will need a good clean with ‘sugar soap’ to get rid of excess wallpaper paste, and then I can paint the ceilings with that magic ‘pink paint’ that dries white. My timeline is 7 weeks as that’s when the new 2 piece suite arrives.
Good luck! Intrigued by the fabric softener suggestion above! I have always scored the wall and used s steamer but whatever works for you. So many techniques out there.
We ended up putting a layer of some sort of paint the makes it a new wall, so we did not have to pull off the wall paper. Some of the wallpaper was so stuck we pulled holes in the wall. I am impressed , this is looking good!
