Thank you. Your product is great. I have tried other products but I was listening to WCCO Radio from St. Paul/Minneapolis and after several weeks went and purchased it. It works great, I had two layers of wallpaper and a layer of paint in between. Put on the sheets kept them moist, checked it a few times but after about two hours and the use of my scrapper it came off so easy. I have recommend it to my sister because her son has purchased an older home with wallpaper that they want to remove. I will have to mail her some because she hasn't been able to find it in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Thanks again for a great product. Kay D. Giossi

I would like to commend your company on a excellent product, the Wallwik System. We just moved into our new home with old wallpaper present and it had to come off before we moved in. I did my internet research and came across the Walkwik Wallpaper Removal System, watched the video demonstration, found a local retailer and purchased the product. You might say I was a bit skeptical, however the inexpense was well worth it. Just today I closed on my new home and went right to work removing the wallpaper with Wallwik. WOW...........in about 20 minutes I was able to see the bare walls beneath the paper. It came off in sheets. The secret was keeping the sheets moist to saturate into the paste. I have never removed wallpaper before and I had a friend present who had done this a couple of times, and they where in disbelief. You made me a true believer in your product and I commend you for its easy use and clean up. Now instead of scrapping all weekend, I am ready for some real work.......painting my new interior. Thanks again and I will recommend your product to all my friends. Sincerely; Phillip Adair Melbourne, Florida

Hi, I have another success story for you. My uncle recently passed away and left his home to the family. It was built in the 1880's. It had numerous layers of wallpaper on the bedroom walls. My elderly parents were trying to remove the paper with little success. When I found out they were over there working on this project, I grabbed the Wallwik EZ Strip to see if it would dissolve the old paper (4 layers thick). It worked like magic. I then went home to get my Wallwik sheets to have them try this method. They were simply amazed at the results and will tell everyone about your product.

I recently remodeled a bathroom that needed wallpaper removed, and I was having absolutely no luck with the old tried and true, conventional wallpaper removal products. I was told about the Wallwik Wallpaper & Paste Remover System from a friend who had seen it on This Old House, and what a great job it did in removing the wallpaper in my bath! I had tried the products on the market, and had scraped to the point of beginning to damage the plaster. But once I used Wallwik, the wallpaper peeled off effortlessly, and removed all excess glue, leaving the walls very clean and ready to paint. I have since recommended your product to 4 of my friends, who have all used it with the same amount of success and satisfaction. They have thanked me numerous times for the recommendation. It is both refreshing and satisfying to use a product that is of such quality. My only suggestion would be to make it easier to purchase such as at Lowes or Home Depot. I was only able to find it at a small hardware store several miles from my home. Kudos to you and your company on an excellent product ! Kimberly A. Mair

Walwik turned a major task (I was about to rent a steamer) into an easy sunday afternoon project. It was exactly like it was shown on Ask This Old House! Thanks for making such a great product!
Wallwik On Ask This Old House ®
The schedule has been set and Wallwik will be on the hit TV show “Ask This Old House ®.” It is scheduled to air on January 20, 2005 in most PBS markets. However, check your individual PBS station to verify the time in your location. Ask for the schedule on Ask This Old House ®, Episode #316.

Wallwik dealers take advantage of the publicity this show will surely provide and advertise in your local shopper or newspaper informing your market on the show and where they can buy the Wallwik System.

This is an endorsement for your excellent product. "Finally a product that does exactly what it claims it will do! The wallpaper came off so easy; I couldn't believe it--BUT ITS TRUE." Thanks again, Ed. George R. Bauer, St. Marys, PA.

I have a century old house that had wallpaper over plaster. The paper had been painted over several times. There were at least 3 or 4 different colors. With extra pressure the scoring tool got through all the layers and the Wallwik sheets and solution did a great job of removing the wallpaper, even with all the paint layers. We were able to complete a 12x 14 room with 10 foot ceilings in one day and are ready to tackle the next room. I was amazed at how quick and easy the work was. Thank you for a great product.
Diane Bjerstedt, River Falls, WI 5-5-04
We had the opportunity to use Wallwik. With 3 people we completely removed wall paper and completed the cleanup in a 13 x 30 kitchen dining area in a little over 4 hours. The product is wonderful. My paper was 1 layer over plaster, part painted, part unpainted and the paper pulled right off in full sheets. My sister-in-law used Wallwik also and says its the best product she's ever used. Her paper was 2 layers over sheet rock and she got the same results I did.
Linda Jamerson, Homewood, IL 2-17-04
I just wanted to thank you for one of the best products I've ever seen! We purchased a house built in 1955 which is covered floor to ceiling with wallpaper, including the ceiling. Some of the old vinyl paper was so dried out, it came down easily - only to find there was a final paper layer over unprimed sheetrock. We did some research on the internet and came across your product. Though a bit skeptical, thought we would give it a try. It worked like a charm - and allowed me to do other tasks around the house while it worked! This product is BETTER than you claim - and makes what used to be a nasty task something we now look forward to doing as we redecorate. Thank you so much!!!
Lesly Connolly, from Virginia 2-6-04
Thank you, thank you, thank you! My husband and I have been beating our brains in trying to remove wallpaper in our bedroom. My neighbor saw your product on the DIY Network and recommended it to me. I was so skeptical but figured - "What have I got to lose?" My frustration - that's what! To any and all wallpaper removing skeptics out there - IT WORKS! IT REALLY REALLY WORKS!

I purchased Wallwik at a local home improvement store after visiting a home that one of my customers was having wallpaper stripped by a professional. She introduced me to this product, so I stopped on my way back to my store to purchase it, and tried it this evening. I was amazed at how much time it saved me. I wish I would have known about it weeks ago, when my daughter and I stripped wallpaper for a customer at a condo. Please contact me at my business. I would love to offer this to our customers, as we do a considerable business in wallpaper. Thank You. Linda Forthmann, President, Floor to Ceiling, Mason City, Iowa
Letter to Lund's Hardware 5-15-03
Dear Fred, I wanted to write you and let you know how pleased I was with the results of the Wallwik system. The old wallpaper pulled off the walls almost effortlessly. I appreciate your shipping it all the way out to California, as there are no hardware stores here yet smart enough to stock such an excellant product. --- I understand there is also a Border size Wallwik, which I would like to order and ship to my same address, billing the same credit card you already have on file. I plan on reusing the large sheets for another (2) rooms with wallpaper that is screaming to be taken off. Once again thanks for sending this amazing product. ****Lisa Romo*** Riverside, CA 92504
Report From Wallpaper Professionals 3-17-03--
Excellent is the one word description. This product allows homeowners to simply and easily strip their wallpaper. Wallwik is also affordable considering the alternatives. Traditional stripping solutions are expensive. When you combine their cost with the effort that they can take, Wallwik shines through. Our wallpaper wasn't, thankfully, one of the sternest in terms of stripping, but it did a great job with it. Wallwik tend to be less messy in terms of creating pools of water on the floor, which is another plus. We tend to over-soak our wallpaper and this product absorbs our over-use of the garden sprayer. This is an additional plus with consumers whom might have delicate woodwork, trim, or unusual flooring surfaces. A feature your literature doesn't harp on enough. Wallwik is also an excellent alternative to the gel wallpaper strippers. One of the selling points of Gels is the fact that once applied, you don't have to go back and re-wet. This is true with both products, a gel stripper and Wallwik. A gel stripper though, really doesn't soak into the the wallpaper as effectively as a water based soultion that is carried in the Wallwik product. This is the extent our comments from Becky and I. Obviously, we have nothing but good things to say about your product in the terms of the consumer useage. Thanks for the opportunity to do a little Consumer Reports on Wallwik. Wallpaper stripping is never fun, but in most circumstances, Wallwik will remove most of the pain. I wish you luck in further promotion and if you should ever need more assistance for anything, feel free to drop us a line. ******Ron and Rebecca Schunck****** www.wallpaperinstaller.com

Just a note to tell you how wonderful we think the Wallwik wallpaper removal system performs. We are removing the original paper that has been on the walls for 17 years in our kitchen and master bathroom. After the wiking sheets are applied and sets for the applied time, the wallpaper has been very easy to remove. Usually in large sheets. Thank you for offering such an efficient product at a resonable price. We will recommend Wallwik to everyone tackeling this job. Sincerely, Bob and Judy Kyle, Benton, AR
Consumer --Polly Lindsley 1-13-03
Dear Sir, Never have I found anything as great as Wallwik! I think you should rename it to "Wonderwik!" I couldn't believe how easy it was to get down my wallpaper. Thank you for such a great product and for selling it so the "common folk" can afford it! Everything I needed was included and it was great! Thanks again and God bless!

Here are some letters regarding the Wallwik product. So far, everybody who uses it has positive things to say. We will continue to sell it in our store. Letter #1: The very first customer to use Wallwik was doubtfull but she trusts us as she is a good customer. She started out as soon as she got home, it wasn't four hours later, she called and told us (and I quote) "It was all that and a bag of chips!" Seeing as how I never heard that phrase before, I asked her "does that mean you liked it?" She laughed and said YES, YES, YES, it worked great!" Letter #2: When we first started carrying Wallwik we told our customer that it was so new, we haven't had time to use it yet. She said she'd try it and we asked her to call us and let us know how it worked. She called that very day, said IT WORKED GREAT! Also, she couldn't belive how fast it was. Letter 3# Another of our customers called our store after she finished her job. She said, " Wallwik was easy to use, got the job done in one day and she'll tell her friends about it."

Fred Benson 10-28-02,
I am writing to offer my comments on Wallwik wallpaper remover. I have had the opportunity to sell quite a bit of Wallwik and also to use it. When I used it, I was curious as to whether it would drip water on the woodwork and floor, and if it would penetrate through vinyl coated paper which has been scored with the Wallwik scoring tool. I was very impressed with how Wallwik held warm water on the wall. I noticed hardly any dripping. Also, it penetrated through the perforations very effectively and softened the paper and paste as advertised. When I sell Wallwik, I always encourage customers to give me their feedback. It has been almost unanimously favorable. The one or two customers who were lukewarm had paper glued directly to unprimed sheetrock, and were expecting a miracle. Wallwik is a good product that performs as advertised! Thank you for bringing Wallwik to my store. Sincerely, Fred Benson Owner, 201 S. Main, River Falls, WI 54022, (715)425-2415

10-25-02- Hi, I purchased the Wallwik Wallpaper and Paste Removal kit from a local home improvement store, and wanted to pass on that it worked impeccably! I decided to paint my bathroom, which was wallpapered, so what a job it turned out to be - I tried scoring and using two different jelly sprays that only made a mess of my wall (one even turned my wall blue)... and then I found Wallwik -what an amazing product! It was easy, fast and really came off. Thanks to your product I was able to finish my bathroom, and sell my home with a freshly painted bathroom. Thanks so much - we need the product to be available to pick up at stores - as I cannot find it - I have told my friends about this wonderful product that saved me hours of work.

After trying a lot of different ways to remove wallpaper, I tried your product and loved it. I will never use a putty knife again!St. Johns, Michigan
Mel Wieber Owner, Silvestri Paint & Wallpaper
Dear Sir: One of the biggest complaints that I get from a customer when they are considering purchasing wallpaper is the nightmare of removing it. When this is a problem for them, most will not purchase paper. Instead they will paint the walls. I have seen a decrease in wallpaper sales over the last few years due to this problem, (besides price). I think that you, the distributors, can help reduce this problem by informing dealers of the different products that can be used to help remove wallpaper. As you know, a wallpaper steamer seems to be the "Cadillac" means of removing wallpaper, although it is not the most pleasant thing to use. I have a wallpaper steamer that I rent out when all of the "chemical" strippers fail, but since I started selling "Wallwik" paper removal product I have no need for the steamer. I have sold 77 units of the Wallwik wallpaper remover since I put it on the shelf in my store. I have only had 2 compaints that it didn't work (and that was because they didn't use it properly). I have had nothing but praises otherwise. I would like to see your representatives mention this product to other dealers and have them try it. Just telling a customer about it yesteday led to a sale from a customer who overheard our conversation. I have not been excited about a product like this for a long time. Why don't you order a sample from Wallwik and try it in your offices. Thank you, Mel Wieber, St Johns, MI -- NOTE: Mel sent this letter to each of his wallcovering distributors!
Consumer --September 9, 2002
To Whom it May Concern, I would like to tell you that your product works great. I did not believe that it would remove wallpaper. I did my bathroom and it removed all the paper most of the glue with little effort. It cut my prep time roughly in half and made the job a lot easier. I will be using your product a lot in the near future because we are redoing four rooms in our home. Thank you, Paul Murray, St. Johns, MI

This product was BETTER than promised. It saved us HOURS of work. We have shared it with two other families because they could not find it locally.

--Wallwik will remove wallpaper from bare sheetrock and is the best product to remove wallpaper from a poorly prepared wall. People just don't seem to take the time to prepare the sub-wall properly when they put up wallpaper so when it is time to take it off they have troubles. Well Wallwik will take care of that problem and works great on taking off wallpaper under almost any condition. But the best part--it uses no chemicals! This is NO SNAKE OIL--WALLWIK WORKS!!! Even the professional wallpaper strippers use Wallwik for the tough jobs! Call my store if you have trouble finding Wallwik locally. We've been selling Wallwik for almost five years now and really like the product.

Consumer- Carol, July 14, 1999:
"We have a 125 year old Victorian farmhouse that we have been re-modeling for the past 15 years. We had some ugly wallpaper that we just had to get rid of. We have tried steamers, pails of water and brushes and chemicals. It was terribly hard work. Then we discovered Wallwik. It's unreal the time and money that Wallwik has saved us. I love Wallwik. We had 10 layers of wallpaper to remove and by just applying more pressure with the scoring tool, the Wallwik worked so well that we were able to remove all 10 layers at one time in one hour. I'm here to tell you the paper literally slid off the wall. My husband asked me what we were going to do with the Wallwik and I said we were going to lock it in a safety deposit box as it's going with us if we ever move. I love Wallwik."

To: Subject: Thank you!!!! What a miracle product! Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2002 10:13:17 -0800 X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express I am still in shock! For three weeks I have been trying to strip the wallpaper in my daughter’s room. Our home was built in 1965 and the drywall had never been painted; however, 5 layers of wallpaper and 2 layers of paint (over the wallpaper) had been applied over that period of time! I tried 4 different products recommended to me by friends, Television, etc., but to no avail. After 3 weeks, I had uncovered two four feet by three feet areas. It was frustrating and I begin to wish I hadn't started this project. Since every room in our home had been wallpapered when we purchased the home, we had planned to strip and paint all of the walls over a period of time. I began to wish we had chosen another home. Then while searching the net I came upon Wallwik. I read the testimonies and read about the product. I had tried everything else, even steaming. Well, last night I went to a store and purchased Wallwik as a last resort, thinking that I would end up having to have someone come in for a great cost and remove my wallpaper in order just to get my daughter’s room back to order. My daughter and I took the Wallwik sheets and soaked them as indicated in the instructions. Knowing we had so many layers, we left the sheets on for 3 hours, spraying them every half hour with a small garden sprayer. It works great!!! We have 1/2 the room done already and I will take a couple hours and finish it tonight. Your product has put the excitement back into my project and removed the drudgery. It only took a few minutes to put up the sheets and I was able to do other things around the house while I waited for it to do the work for me. It amazed me how they clung to the wall! Thanks again for such a great product!! I will recommend it to anyone who will listen! Jaimie Smith Hamilton, Ohio 45013 (Address and phone # deleted from e-mail) Note: Single layer of wallpaper removal usually take 30 to 45 minutes.
