Wow that looks great. I will never remove wallpaper again in my home. I tried in my son's room & then my master bath. The wallpaper comes off fine but the glue backing will not come off. I messed up both walls trying to get that stuff off. I'm doing my upstairs bathroom & I'm painting over that stuff

I made the mistake of removing wallpaper from kitchen walls of a home built in the 80's & it was a mess! Had to call in "professionals"🙄 & a year after, the paint was crackling!
So I hired another professional to paint over the wallpaper in the bathroom & it still looks great!!!

Looks fantastic. Nice work.

Looks good...just maybe spackle and sand the seams so the moisture (water) from the primer doesn't effect the seams, then finish with wall paint

You should always use solvent-based (oil-based) primer, because the water in regular primer can often cause seams to lift. Lucky for him, that the paper was very stable and secure.
