How To Remove Decoupage From Wood

I recently bought a wooden farm blazon kitchen table. The previous owner started a decoupage projection on the base of operations and quit 1/ii way through. Is there a uncomplicated way to remove this? Susan O

The only way I know how is to sand it. Not very easy I know!

Yup, I'd probably sand it down and re-finish it. Non knowing the compound with which information technology was begun, I can't advise a solvent I would trust. One has to be conscientious with that stuff; sometimes it creates more problems than it solves.

Also I'd check effectually with my friends and see if any of them could loan me a chugalug sander. If one could, I'd buy him a few spare belts.

I have decoupaged picturebook pages on our old nursery walls. I demand that to come off. Do I just have to sand that off the walls too? Is there a remover that is gentle to the system?

Thank you

I only removed a decoupaged map that I had put on my son's closet door in his nursery (he's 1 and keeps ripping it off himself and eating it! So it had to come downwards!) Information technology'south best to use Wallpaper remover. It comes in a spray bottle and you can get it at any hardware store.

Spray information technology on, allow it sit down 2-10 minutes, and take a putty pocketknife to information technology. It scrapes off hands! Y'all exercise have to use some elbow grease, but its faster than sanding that's for sure!

Simply sand it then try coating it with fresh pigment and outset decoupaging right away!
