WP Chomp52016 Wallpaper Scraping Tool Scraper: Sticky Paste, Original Version, Multi-Purpose Removal

They are real easy to use and it does the job well!

I found this worked really well for getting wallpaper off without damaging the wall. It does feel like cheap plastic, but I mean, who cares if it does the job well.

Was hesitant with buying it. Lucky I got it. It’s a life saver. Totally need this to remove my wallpaper without destroying the wall/paint.

I'll start by saying that my project didn't involve multiple layers of wallpaper, just one (thankfully).I've removed wallpaper a few times from plastered and primed drywall surfaces using different methods (scoring tool, steamer, commercial spray to dissolve glue, etc.). Some methods/products were over the top aggressive and too messy. For this project, I wanted to keep things simple and followed the directions provided in a video by a Canadian contractor, which can be found on a well known site. I only used 3 products: warm water and ordered this wallpaper scraping tool and a yellow contractor sponge from Amazon.To start, I put on disposable gloves, covered the floor with a plastic drop cloth to control the mess, filled a bucket with warm water, dipped the sponge in it, squeezed out the excess water, then ran the sponge over the wallpapered area I was working on. I waited a few minutes to allow it to soak in and soften the outer layer enough to begin peeling it. Once I removed the top layer, I repeated the process over the paper to allow the glue to soften. Again, let it sit a few minutes, then I was able to peel off the remaining paper with ease. I also used the scraper to remove excess glue. The trick here is to be patient; if the paper doesn't release from the wall, then run the wet sponge over it again and again. Remember to use a light hand to avoid damaging the wall surface. All I have left to do now is wipe down the walls one final time to remove any glue residue.This was by far the easiest wallpaper removal project I've ever done and the scraping tool made it easier. I used the metal edge of the tool for most of it, didn't find the plastic/dull side all that useful for my project.
