Just moved into a new home (new to me) and it has horrible blue and white striped wall treatise. It has to go. How do I cart it off? Please, help.
mix vinegar and water, and wipe it down a few times
There is a tool you can buy at any store that sell wallpaper. It has sharp points on one side and it swirls around it will poke holes in the weekly, than take fabric softener mixed beside warm water (about 1 cup sotfener to 4 cups thaw water) and put it on the wall (I use a old rag) let set for 2 - 3 min. and it should come of amazingly easy! You'll be needing a wallpaper scraper. If you own a nice friend with a steamer to remove wallpaper, borrow it. If not, try soaking the wallpaper and leaving it for a few minutes, later using the scraper. Make sure you don't dig into the wall though.. good luck. :)
Answers: If it's not the dry-strippable hotchpotch then you need to rent/buy a steamer. Renting a heavy-duty one will be most economical contained by the long run. You'll be able to steam the wallpaper and then remove it placidly pealing it and using a scraper. Once the wall dries, sand it lightly, vacuum up the dust and you're geared up to paint or paper.
Congrats on the new home and Good Redecorating!

Here's a site ;)
At Home Depot buy a short time round thingy that you roll over the paper to pierce holes in it. After you do a portion with that, soak it with thaw out, soapy water from a spray bottle and let it sit on the thesis a few minutes. Then start scraping; some parts will come off well and some not so easily. It'll make a big mess, but use plenty of sea. you can rent a steaming thingy that will make it easier to get it past its sell-by date.. if you don't want to spend any money then just damp the wallpaper with a damp sponge and rake over it off.. either agency is tedious and time consuming so I'd probably just use a sponge and skip the steaming article..
I've done it before with only just warm water, so I would skip the vinegar unless you want your walls to stink :P
steam it to verbs the glue and peel rotten mix water and vinegar,then rub it rotten
