Hi All,

I currently stripping wallpaper from plasterboard, and it's becoming a bit messy. Not all the wallpaper comes off and in parts a bit of the board strips off.

What's the best way to approach this? Just strip and then skim over with plaster?

Thanks for any advice.

best way is to strip it,fill it ,then put on a good quality lining paper(1000 grade)
 
Try to pull the face of the paper off first and then wet the backing paper. Dont use a scraper that is to sharp as this will damage the boards. steer clear of steam strippers.
