ARTEX REMOVAL

[POPPY]

HOW DO YOU REMOVE ARTEX FROM WALLS?

[Hamish]

You can steam it off but it takes a long time and makes a lot of mess. Good Luck. Hamish

I've just remembered, You can skimm over it with plaster though, less messy and more expensive, unless the Artex is holding the plaster together underneath. Hamish

I have come accross a wonderfull product called X-Tex. It is safe to use as it doesnt contain any nasty solvents. I applied this product to my Artex in the kitchen, left it overnight and clean it all off the next day. It didnt even effect the underlying plasterboard.
