I have lived in my small apartment of 40 square meters from January 2 this year. Almost from the day the intention has been to remove the gotelé walls and paint ... damn time that I came up with gotelé remove before painting ... And my boy just wanted to paint, but I tired of seeing the paste that in all the houses I know (and try to clean it), I convinced my boyfriend that it was best pardes leave smooth ... How pretty I am coy, fordays! Monday began our vacation, and this year's travel budget has stolen several (partly) the paint, rollers, spatulas and more. And we begin with what, at first seemed an easy task. After documents on how to remove the damn gotelé did what most convinced us: removing completely, ie behead (because it was painted with plastic above), moisten it and remove it. Great, two walls removed and professional ... and reached the first wall with plasterboard ... is hurting just thinking ... The gotelé not leave without booting the first layer of cellulose the panel! Horror, we must find another way ... take the car running, go to Leroy and stripping wholesale purchase (for all plasterboard), returns home, carrying the boat, put the stripper, let it act half an hour ... remove it with the spatula y. .. tatachán: you take the cellulose layer and part of the carton that protects the plaster. At this point you can imagine the faces that we had: with 8 cans of paint stripper to be returned, a half chipped plasterboard wall, the other and removed gotelé ... had to continue removing what remedy! And we are removing the gotelé (and the cellulose layer and some piece of cardboard). The appearance of the drywall was horrible when we finished ... and ours was not much more ... After two days doing what we thought it would take half, we started to paint. The first layer with an anti-mold paint, because the building is old and has condensation on some areas. The drywall was perfect ... but the brick wall ... Be flaking!, Was sanded and cleaned, covered with aguaplast faults ... but the paint was falling. I, at that point, she hid the tears of frustration ... Embolao you get into this to my boyfriend and everything goes wrong! In desperation, we remove the chipped areas, we further filler and paint with the color we chose. Again chips, filler and paint again ... and, finally, finished. Clean, pick and promise that tomorrow we take the day off. In short: we have 4 days to make a room, his parents have come every evening to help (mine are on vacation), his sister has come to take the dog for a walk and help with the garden (cleaning and watering). .. We are two other bedrooms, hall and all the roofs ... Conclusion: I am glad to have a tiny apartment: they are less meters gotelé to remove (thank goodness the room, in the end, it has been nice). By the way, tomorrow we pick up the pc room ... so I'll be "out" a few days.
