Awesome formula- I'll have to try that one...

Re: Glue On Wall


I suggest you test the 1-2-3 & Gardz mix "at home" first. PWG and I have been hearing of this mix (and others) from a cohort in NJ. I just tried some in a home project and I am not getting the bonding I hoped for. It has failed the "X" test in a few areas, even on raw rock (yes, THOROUGHLY dusted with a damp miftie)

My jury went back for further deliberations and 9 are pushing for a conviction and execution of this mix. (DAMN, starting to sound more and more like Jack "Don't mix products!" Ford every day)

I read hints of sanding but have read no success story of such a project. Once done i am going to coat with Gardz, skim, sand and prime with a slow drying oil as Pro wall guy suggested. Any fast glue removal hints, or precautions.
If you are going to use Guardz you do not have to remove the old adhesives. Guardz is formulated for that purpose. To sand off as much
of the adhesives as possible if that is what you want to do, using an
electric sander with 100 grit sandpaper should suffice, wipe walls down
good and then seal with Guardz. I would do my skimming, sanding before
applying Guardz. You should not have to prime after applying Guardz.
