2torial #0527: Learn2 Remove Wallpaper (Continued) Moisten the paper Do you have an old garden sprayer used to spread chemicals all over your garden in the 70's? Well, bring it out and clean it up. If you can't find it, a bucket and a broad brush will do fine. If desired, you can mix a chemical wallpaper remover or wetting agent into the water. Beware: if you use any chemical remover, wear goggles for eye protection for the duration of the project.   Also, know that you may be faced with old paper that chooses not to absorb water. In this case you'll have to scratch up the surface with coarse sandpaper or a scoring tool. This will allow the water to soak into the paper. Apply the wetting agent application twice more; the water will ideally do most of the work. Then let it soak for 30 minutes--it's ready when you can scrape off pieces of paper with your fingernail. -end- Learn More! or All steps at once (printable version)
