Front bedroom/office wallpaper removal

I took my first stab at removing wallpaper from the front bedroom (soon to be office). Although we kind of liked the wallpaper and the color, it was not going to match the new closet that is being built.

Our seller was kind cheap enough to not leave switchplates on any of the outlets, so we didn't have to remove them!

Next step was to spray this blue goopy stuff on the wallpaper and let it sit for 15-30min.

After 30min it was soft enough that I was able to make a hole with my scraper. The room used to be aqua!

About 45min of work and I had almost a whole panel removed. The adhesive (the non-blue stuff) is still sticking to the wall, but I believe I can scrape it off with hot water later?

Cheerio was a very good helper by alerting me to any dangers to the wallpaper removal process, such as cats on the street.
