“Had some old, heavily varnished wallpaper that nothing...”

written by on 17/02/2011

Had some old, heavily varnished wallpaper that nothing I tried could get off (steamer had no affect at all!). Wallwik shifts the paper fairly effectively (I just have to make sure I have at least one score mark every 5mm or similar). As far as I can tell, it's actually the solution that is most effective, the sheets just help it penetrate effectively. The scorer is fine, but I would recommend a "hedghog" perforator, it covers much more area and scores more effectively with less damage to the underlying plasterwork. As others have said, the scraper is a bit pants, just use a standard metal one.



So overall great product (as otherwise the wallpaper would be stuck on) but could do with better accessories. Not sure I would use this over a steamer on "normal" wallpaper though, it's a bit faffy, but great for difficult wallpapers.
