Hey there,
I have this AWFUL looking grey splashback panel in my kitchen sink area (circled blue), and whilst I'm doing some renovations to improve the appearing of my entire kitchen, I realised THIS HAS GOT TO GO. Plan is to expose the bricks, and put some rustic solid wood plank shelves there for plants and decorative kitchen items.
What I am 98% sure of, is that there's more lovely exposed brick underneath it (I hope so anyway, but why on EARTH did the previous owners think this was a good idea to cover up in the first place?). I also know there is no wires or electrics as that side of the sink area is completely plug-free. What I'm not sure of, is how they've stuck it on, and IF, when I rip this off, it will just be a gluey, smeary, disgusting mess that will leave the breaks beneath unsalvagable?
Does anyone have any thoughts as to how this gross thing is stuck on? Note: the black stuff you can see running up the size is a sort of squishy black sealant type stuff, if that helps solve this mystery in any way.
Looking forward to hearing your responses.
