Well, I should have seen this coming

I paid about $8 for a wallpaper glue stripper that burned my skin and worked okay on the wallpaper, but was difficult to spread and came with 1000 warnings.

Naturally, it turns out that $.03 of 50/50 white vinegar and scalding water works better, only with no possible danger to my skin, my clothing, or my cats.

Washing up liquid in lots of water applied to wallpaper that's been scored by a chisel also works a treat.

If it isn't food or medicine, the chemical industry can sell just about any damn thing they choose, and market it any way they want to.

Watch out for things like oven cleaner and bathroom mold / mildew remover, too. And ALWAYS read the labels!

Isn't that always the way.
