" How do you remove wallpaper borders without ruining the wall? \u2014Jennifer Guerra, Flushing, NY There are several ways. Start by spraying the lower edge of the border with warm water and let it soak a while. Then use a plastic scraper to gently pry the paper from the wall. If this doesn&amp;#039;t do the trick, try a clothes steamer. Steam one small section at a time until the adhesive loosens (you may have to repeat several times), then strip the paper off. Always work from the bottom up. Wipe any residue with a sponge dipped in warm water. On borders that won&amp;#039;t budge, dampen with a bit of white or cider vinegar (the acetic acid acts as a solvent on the glue), or use a commercial wallpaper remover, which contains special enzymes that dissolve the paste.
