The builder probably put it in and didn't use the proper pre-wash (or whatever that is they are supposed to put up.) We have taken it down many times. We have the scorer and a steamer and the chemicals but none help if it was put up by the wrong way... Good luck and you are welcome to use our stuff. It maybe at the lake but we can get it in the next few weeks :)The Stuckey 6https://www.blogger.com/profile/08958585470851656008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5152798459467191621.post-51739349106211460982009-01-03T17:00:00.000-08:002009-01-03T17:00:00.000-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.The Stuckey 6https://www.blogger.com/profile/08958585470851656008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5152798459467191621.post-90187566954277197022008-11-03T06:00:00.000-08:002008-11-03T06:00:00.000-08:00Didn't know you'd get a comment so soon, huh? :) ...Didn't know you'd get a comment so soon, huh? :) I just finished removing wallpaper in my living room - 21 x 27 x 10.5. Not a fun job. My recommendation? Buy a steamer! Ours was $50 and well worth every penny. I had 90% of the room done in one afternoon. Good luck!Larahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16962152765994106854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5152798459467191621.post-17421299509420168512008-10-30T20:42:00.000-07:002008-10-30T20:42:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.urban grace photographyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17398935281717110225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5152798459467191621.post-89572387421760829142008-10-30T20:41:00.000-07:002008-10-30T20:41:00.000-07:00hey, amy great blog!

Once you score it the chemical gets behind the paper and lifts it right off.

I have heard that using a scorer allows the liquid to penetrate the glue. On HGTV I have seen them use just a mixture of liquid fabric softener and water. Hopefully the previous owners put the wallpaper up correctly, that will make it easier to take down. Good luck, can't wait to see the finished pics!<BR/><BR/>Laura :)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14872717855898604617noreply@blogger.com
