Works on woodchip!!
I'm a professional decorator and I had 3 rooms of lovely woodchip to strip off. I found this product on the internet and decided to give it a try. I was really pleased to find that it actually works! You have to score the paper properly, and let the sheets soak the wall for a while (don't be tempted to to rush this bit!) and keep spraying the sheets with more solution. You will be rewarded with paper that scrapes off easily, with the paste going back to being moist. The paper came off easily, no tough scraping needed and hence less likelihood of damaging your plaster. Other than a few stubborn bits (where I had to deploy my trusty steamer) this product performed very well. Worth buying, it saves a lot of hassle and if it works on the dreaded woodchip then should work on anything else!
Does what it says on the tin...
I'm always a bit skeptical when buying products I've never heard of, but I'm pleased to say that SimpleStrip is a fantastic product. It made the whole process of stripping wallpaper utterly stress free- you can hang the sheets and go and do something else instead of back-breaking steaming and scraping! The company sent everything extremely quickly and the follow up customer care was outstanding. I highly recommend this product to anyone who has been putting off their DIY jobs!
It was simple to strip with Simplestrip!
I found Simplestrip on the internet whilst searching for anyone who had some tips for removing Anaglypta wall paper, which had a number of coats of emulsion paint on it. Having read the reviews by other people I decided to give it a try and ordered the kit for 2 rooms. The well packaged kit arrived next day and having read the instructions carefully, we embarked on the big strip! It was necessary to be patient and allow the solution to soak well in but then the paper just peeled off so easily with the big plastic Skimmer supplied, we then washed down the walls to remove any traces of paste, job done! We have now painted the walls directly and there is no trace that they had previously been papered. I would definitely recommend this product not just for difficult to remove papers like Anaglypta but for any wallpaper stripping, I will certainly use it next time.
