hi,
i need some help/advice please...
i stupidly agreed to give me mother a hand to strip the paper from the walls with the intention of giving the walls a quick sand then paint...
sounded ok in theory!!
done mine, turned out fantastic.
however, its taken me 3 days to strip the paper from the walls, with a proper steamer, it was nigh on impossible. (just an average lounge and dining room, ex council house)
anyways, on the plaster, there is this horrid yellow chalky type paint, what is it??
am i right in thinking its limewash?? if so, what the easiest method of removal please guys??
i had a go in a small area to sand it off but i will go through 100's of sheets of sand paper...is there an easier less time consuming way??
appreciate any help
