  • Foil & flocked wallpaper

    I recently removed the last homeowners solution to any problem, 1/4" drywall. Under this I found some "lovely" green and gold foil with brown flocking wallpaper. This stuff defies removal and I can tear up any thing.Thing is, the flocking will show thru almost any covering I can think of.Anyone got any ideas on removal of this foil stuff from the 1950's. Or ideas to cover. I've used venitian plaster in the past but only Behr. Thanks

    My advice would be to try and get it down. The foil of which you speak is a pain to work with. Generally, with a lot of elbow grease, it will come down. You could use joint compound to repair any damage you do to the walls. Hope that helps
