Hi - hope someone can help.

I have removed tiles from my bathroom wall and ended up with loads of the old adhesive being stuck to the walls.

The walls will be plaster skimmed before I paint them (I'm not re-tiling them).

Question is whether I should remove the old adhesive before it's skimmed. And if I should, then before I start an energetic process of chiselling it off, whether there's an easier way of getting it off?

I'd be grateful for any ideas.

Many thanks.
