painted plasterboard

[tfs]

I never said it was, it was an anolgy I used to illustrate that just because it had "been done that way for years" that it doesn't necessarily make it right. Everyone has their own way of doing things and that is what the forums are for, to allow people to read the advice given by contributors on here, compare that advice, contradictory or not, and then make their own informed decision from that information. I think we both agree though that it would be better to re-sheet than waste time removing adhesive or paint if possible. It isn't always possible though!

Cant believe the amount of bickering I participated in mate :lol:

It was a situation that I would be very unlikely to be in as I would have insist on reseheeting. Looking at both sides I believe that both scroing and the use of steam are not ideal ways to tackle plasterboard.

Appoligies to all for having to view all the bickering! I cant hep myself after a few beers.

:hurray:

Im sure some guys might have found it entertaining tough:lol:

Put some, say duck tape onto the paint, wait a short time then pull it of and see how much paint gets pulled off
