32 oz. Wallpaper Removal Kit

Step one open container and used perforator. It rolled easily and I raised it both horizontally and vertically. Because I’m tall I didn’t need a step stool or ladder. I focused on sections. I had an area I was unable to use it (see photo). I tried scoring with a knife. Step two House water temp only got up to 111 degrees per my instant read thermometer. I boiled some water and brought it to 132 degrees. Total water is approximately a gallon. I measured out 10.5 ounces (within a fraction of an ounce error) Step three Applied gloves and used washcloths do to lack of misting bottle or sponge. The water dropped down my arm so I rinsed off after the fact. My wife didn’t like the smell and probably a good idea to air out. It wasn’t bad in the bucket, but became more noticeable when applying. I thought it smelled like an action figure with a rubber head when you first open the package. My wife disagreed but couldn’t identify it. Our noses are sensitive to different things and we can detect things the other can’t. Step four Waited 15 minutes and then started scrapping from the top. I found a couple of things. More perf and harder is good. I could have pressed harder. Peeling via finger nail was more efficient than the scrapper. Multiple passes are definitely required. I ended up doing it in three. Majority of the skin on the first pass. Majority of the adhesive paper and the rest of the skin on the second and the final adhesive paper on the third. The wall paper comes off easier with this stuff than without. I didn’t need to worry about the side. It peeled off fine without perf due to getting in on the sides. I suspect 111 or 130 or 120 temp wouldn’t make that much of a difference but filling to 4/5 and then boiling worked. Step five Wiped down with clean water to make sure I had all the residue off. My conclusion is that this takes time, but when it’s done, I at least, had a clean already painted surface and no residue. I can’t compare to other products but this works

Removing wallpaper can certainly be a hassle so anything that comes along and helps is always welcomed. However whether your wallpaper is hard to remove or easy you will find this product helpful. The scraper is nicely designed. The grip feels good and the piece is sturdy. The sharp edge of the scraper is angled just right so as the handle is placed flat on the wall and glided alone it peels back the wall paper without damaging the wall beneath. The handle has a wheel that helps the handle glide as it removes the wallpaper and border. The solution that is included is designed to loosen the glue and help the scraper to glide easier. If the wallpaper or border is being stubborn and difficult to remove the kit includes a very handy tool. The small hand held roller has small teeth underneath that perforate the wall paper allowing the solution to penetrate thru out when sprayed on and dissolves the glue. The scraper then can more easily remove the wallpaper.

Great removal kit that actually works and has almost all of the required tools included! The removal kit comes with the concentrated solution, of course, scoring/perforating tool, and the scraper. The scraper has a handy roller on the heel end that keeps the scraper at the perfect angle to avoid gouging the walls. The perforating/scoring tool works very well and definitely speeds up the process. The solution works very well compared to many others, and I've tried several. The only thing you need is a bucket and a rag or spray bottle to dilute and apply the solution. Fantastic product and kit! Just make sure you follow the instructions and allow the solution to work its magic before you start scraping and waste time effort and patience.

Wallpaper removal is among my least favorite things to do. It seems to be a very inaccurate science. Sometimes the wallpaper just peels right off the wall and other times you take layers of wall with it. I decided to give this removal kit a try to see if it helped. My understanding is there are different types of wallpaper and sometimes there’s a vinyl layer on the outside. Apparently that is what I had and it makes it hard for the removal solution to penetrate to the layer underneath. The scoring tool that comes in this kit makes it easier for the solution to reach the lower layers but then it makes it so the wallpaper tends to tear when you’re trying to peel it off. I found that when I did not use the scoring tool, the pieces of wallpaper came off in bigger pieces. Once the outer layer is off, the solution seemed to do a good job getting the glue to release from the wall but the challenge is getting the solution down there. After trying a few different things, I found what worked best was steaming the outer layer so I could peel that off. Then I used the solution to loosen the glue. Then I used the scraping tool the remove any wallpaper that didn’t just peel off. The scraping tool seems to be designed at a good angle to minimize damage to the wall and it has a roller at the other end so it rolls smoothly over the wall. Since this is a three piece kit, I would say I recommend the solution (which is a concentrated solution that makes three gallons) and the scraper but I wasn’t as happy with the scoring tool. Overall, this is a good product.

worked great. Ho Chi-Minh attended the National Academy in Hue, a city on the coast of central Vietnam. He was expelled for protesting against the puppet emperor Bao Dai and the French officials who controlled him. Ho left Vietnam on a French steamer and traveled to several ports of call: Boston, New York, London and eventually settling in Paris, France. There he joined the Communist party and discovered the writings of Vladimir Lenin. Adopting the name Nguyen Ai Quoc or “Nguyen the Patriot,” he lobbied unsuccessfully for Vietnamese independence during the Versailles Peace Conference in 1919. In 1923 Ho was invited to Moscow to attend the Comintern, an organization created by Lenin to promote worldwide revolution. He trained as a Soviet agent, but often was criticized for being a nationalist first and a communist second. He was then sent to China to help establish the Indochina Communist Party with other Vietnamese exiles.

Scrapper did put holes in the wall paper and the solution was better that what I was using to loosen up the paste for scraping.
