Construction Adhesive Nightmare
Why in the hell would anyone use construction adhesive and nails for panel?
I'm removing old paneling in my basement and replacing with drywall. I reach an area of the base where the past owners used CA along with panel nails and it's a MFing nightmare to remove. I have to use a scraper and hammer to pry it away from the stud. I can't think of any easy way to remove it without scraping. Anyone ever experience a similar issue? |

Just because you're a Stud, whatever you do, DONT put construction adhesive on your dick before having sex, unless you really love your sex partner. You might be attached forever. As for removal on the WOODEN studs. A heat gun might help. Be careful, they can start fires. Keep a bucket of water nearby. You could have just put the sheetrock right over the paneling! |

I don't know about over studs, but I expect that even if you don't need it a lot of people would just go along with the standard procedure. Bill |

I'll bet that he has created an uneven surface by removing the paneling that came off easily and has already begun to hack away at the remainder. I don't blame him, he probably had no way of knowing about the CA until he got started. |

Besides, I hate a half ass job and prefer to do it the right way. |

I had to remove several very large mirrors that were glued to a wall and then had to remove the excess adhesive from the back of the mirrors. It is not the same as standard CA, I used a thick, long handled curved scraper and I heated the blade over a torch. The heated blade made the adhesive removal much easier, but it was still a pain in the ass. |

You wont see the paneling, and the paneling is just a tad bit more "insulation".... Of course its too late now, unless you have other 'complete' walls to do. |

Better you than me....... |

I don't know what the generic name is, but they are widely available. The blade vibrates at a high speed and cuts through stuff really well. Doctors use something like them for cutting casts and bones and what have you. I have one from Harbor Freight that does great. You can get scraper blades that may do the job. Bill |

Bill Funny, I was thinking the same exact thing yesterday, then I remembered I tried to use my HF oscillating multi-tool to remove mirror adhesive and it was less than effective. The oscillating tools are really great, except for how quickly I wear out the blades. The tool allows me to do things in minutes that previously would have taken hours. |
