![]() ![]() I would also use Gardz on any additional drywall since it's a very good sealer, with none other needed. The roller cover isn't too important as long as it's non-shedding and has a beveled edge, but a microfiber would be fine of course. It is thin, but just go over it a couple times to ensure there are no ridges and runs and you're fine. I would also try to get off any obvious remaining wallpaper paste where you find it, then put on 1 coat of Gardz over everything, and no additional primer. I already have a gallon of each of these products in my possession. Do I need to sand the primer before painting?Īfter the wall is sealed and primed I will be painting with Benjamin Moore's Aura Bath and Spa. Should I prime with a premium primer after the Gardz (I was recommended Benjamin Moore Fresh Start Multi-purpose Latex for it's mildew resistance)? After the coat of Gardz do I need to scuff it up or sand it? Since this is a bathroom, should I apply two coats of Gardz in order to make sure moisture doesn't get through to that adhesive? ![]() Can I use Zinsser Gardz to seal the adhesive and joint compound? What is the best way to make this a paintable surface without activating the wallpaper adhesive which would cause bubbling and peeling of the paint? While it would have been best to have scrubbed off the wallpaper adhesive with a sponge and warm water prior to the skim coat, that isn't much of an option now. This visible area of wallpaper adhesive is located directly where paint will be noticeable between the vanity and the mirror. Now that their crew is gone my wife and I have seen areas where skim coat didn't cover the wallpaper adhesive. Before we were able to remove all the wallpaper adhesive from the interior bathroom walls our drywall contractor advised us that his crew could just skim coat over the adhesive and it would be fine to paint over. The interior walls remained in place but the one exterior wall was replaced with new drywall. In our main bathroom we used a wallpaper steamer to remove the wallpaper on all walls. ![]() She insisted that we rid the house of mold by getting new insulation and new drywall on those exterior walls. As my wife and I tore out some drywall on exterior walls we found mold on the insulation. I have a recently purchased house that we are doing a complete remodel to. ![]()
