I have only done a dozen paper removals and all have gone well at different rates of speed, but I just looked at a kitchen job where they have the original 17 year old paper.
Here's what makes me nervous (enough to post on PT!).
The HO showed me the master bath where the paper removal was very difficult to remove and damaged much of the sheetrock. The paper in the kitchen is very tight. No visible peeling that I can see.
THEY are actually suggesting I prime, texture and paint over it to avoid the same headaches.
1. Is this GARDZ an option for prepping the surface?
2. Is there another option besides trying to strip it?
3. Should I not bid this job, if I have to ask these kinds of questions?
Thanks for the help!
