Removing paint from walls

[baht'at]

Has any one a quick and clean method for removing emulsion from walls as have a feature wall to do in a newly painted and furnished room.

Either a wall scraper or electric sander (with extraction) with a very low grit sheet. I have the same thing to do at the weekend for a kitchen splashback.

What tiles are going up and is it plaster beneath the paint? Cuz if weight is going to be a issue it will be easier to just board it out.

If it's new emulsion - steam wallpaper stripper.

Thanks for the responses.
It is a through dining kitchen -lounge, so wouldn't be easy to contain the dust even with an extractor on would fancy having to either repaint or pay for the ceiling to be redone due to steam condensing on it.
In the back of my mind I think I was once told by an old timer by covering the paint with a thin coat of tubed adhesive and left for a while it softens the emulsion and just scrape off( just the floor to protect).
Just wondered if any one new of or had tried it.

Is it paint or emulsion?

You can sponge it down and use a blades scrapper or get a full shroud with bristles and a floor scabbler and a good hoover it does get most of the dust

Assuming its emulsion

It's easy to remove emulsion, wet sponge wet it up, wipe it over a few times then get a blade scraper from screw fix and it will come off easy peasy

A wallpaper stripper and one of these Gundlach 100mm Scraper £10.79 in stock - next day UK delivery plus Tile Cutters and Tiling Tools - http://www.tradetiler.com/gundlach-100mm-scraper.html is my usual modus operandi!

Cleanest easiest way I know if is to get a tub of dirt-cheap rubbish ready mixed adhesive and spread it all over approx 1mm thick.
Leave it 20 mins and then scrape it off.
It keeps all the paint contained so no dust and an easy(ish) clean-up.
