remove gloss paint from wood panelling??

[mollymalone]

Hi, My hallway, stairs and landing are all wood panelled, although, it seems the previous owners have painted over this panelling in the front porch with a gloss paint, and wall papered over this....Theres really nothing else I can think of doing except removing this, and trying to bring it back to its original state......where do I start ?????? Pleas, any advise very much appreicated!

Depending on how old the house is ie.10-15 years i would rip it off, if the house is not that old you will find the panelling is just pinned on to straps which are normally easily removed leaving some nail holes in you're wall,which u can fill and paint over.If the house is older and the panelling has been on since it was built,use a heat gun or nitromorse,paint stripper to remove the gloss.
