Steven Maduro Lazy Land lord tips pt 2 removing wall paper
2 June 2013 | 13 replies
Hello Everyone I am back with tip number 2 Lazy land lord tips how to remove wall paper.Remember the lazy land lord wants to avoid doing work twice so getting it right the first time pays off in the end.I did an A/b comparison of a rented steamer specially made to remvove wall paper.and some simple stuff from the paint aisle in your local lowes or Home DepotI the Lazy Land lord vs my contractor who has over 20 years building houses, and doing renovations.What we found was that the steamer did not work as well as the chemical solutionbut that neither worked as well as when you combine both the solution and the steamer. so for best and quickest results combine the solution with the steamerbut for good results without the expense just get the solution and the wall paper removal toolstools needed mousy thingy 5.00stiff scraper 5.00pump sprayer 7.00go to your local super store and find the little gizmo that looks like a computer mouseinside it has little wheels with teethbuy a gallon of wall paper remover solution ask your paint rep what he or she recommends some work better than others and I am not here to endorse any one product but I must say the stuff I used worked excellently and my lowes rep said it was better than most.The goal with wall paper removal is to not make too many marks in the walls you dont want to damage the dry wall because second goal is you want the paper to come up in large sheets leaving little residue behindif you are not getting this result stop and rethink recheck and re attempt getting this right will help you in the long run(if you are only doing one small room no problem but if you are doing a living room you will want to get this procedure down a Lazy landlord does not want to come back and fix and fill all those holes.from using a tooth tool too aggressively nor do you want to rip pieces of paper leaving paper stuck to the wall which will need to be scraped,Lazy land lords hate scraping the steamer has a tool that if you press too hard will make holes in the wall the little mouse thinga ma jig does not have teeth long enough to puncture your drywallWou will want to get a sprayerI recommend a pump sprayer for two reasons one it sprays very far and one button push is all you need and it just keeps spraying who has time to keep pumping and squeezing the trigger of a conventional spray bottle.
