Customer Reviews for Zinsser 1 gal. DIF Gel Wallpaper Stripper (4-Pack)

Help me I lot very good

Easy to apply and works quickly.

Absolutely love this product! We had wallpaper that had been up (we are guessing) around 25 years or so, floor to ceiling with a boarder in the middle. We were able to get ALL of the wallpaper, boarder and glue down in 7 1/2 hours without any scream, crying or losing our minds that we feared would happen. I definitely recommend it!

This was 30 year old wallpaper. It worked well on some walls but still needed a heavy duty steamer on others.

works great when wall paper is scored good and you wait the 20 minute, and follow directions.

This works pretty good and it is cleaner than the liquid spray on.

great

The DIF Concentrate was not effective in removing wallpaper in our kitchen, so I tried the DIF Gel to remove the wallpaper in the hallway, but I achieved no better effectiveness than I did with the Concentrate. Product came highly recommended by wallpaper installer.

The product is not working as I was told, sorry for my review

Couldn't get it to work and we soaked the wall after frustration.

DIF is the only wallpaper remover I have used and would recommend. I am surprised that Home Depot doesn't sell it in their stores and that it has to be ordered online. Because I was in need of wallpaper remover when I needed it, I had to purchase what was available in the Home Depot store and it was terrible. It was messy and had an odor. Please start stocking DIF in your stores

Works great! I tried another brand first without success. The gel stays in place so the removal solution has time to work properly.

I would recommend this product to my customers if it was still sold in the stores! I really only bought one bottle. It was never sold in a four pack.

I have used this before this makes strict wallpaper so much easier. I would recommend this to others

Did not perform as well as I had hoped. Had to buy a steamer to progress job. Save your money and sp end 50$ on a Wagner steamer.

This was the best ever wallpaper remover I have used. It was a huge, miserable project, and I won't ever hang another sheet of wallpaper.

I was very disappointed in this product. The consistency of the gel makes for a very messy spray application. The product spattered back into my face, as well as the floor. Once on, it worked OK, but it is just an overall messy solution to removing wallpaper. After about an hour of dealing with this, I got out my steamer. THAT is what I should have done to begin with. A steamer is the ticket to removing wallpaper! Now I have a huge container of DIF sitting in my way that I will never use. Lesson learned.

Spray or roll on and be patient. After about ten minutes reapply. in about eight minutes start scraping of the paper. After two attempts with rented steamers the DIF worked much better and was much more cost effective.

It is really messy. My boss loaned us her wallpaper steamer, that worked much better and didn't make a big mess.

Used just over 1 bottle for a 22x15 room with heavy glue. Just know that this is a very time consuming job and should be tackled in small sections. I didn't wait the recommended wait time to begin removal once applied because it would dry quickly and become to difficult to remove. Once I figured that out, each section was done quickly. This product did not effect my skin and didn't ruin the floors if it happen to go past the drip cloth. Very effective product, and would recommend to others.

If you use it right it works fine. After applying focus on that area before moving on. Also helps if you rub it in.

Doesn't work that good at removing the wallpaper, works better on the backing.

It works but so does dishwashing detergent. There is less of a mess with this product as it is more gloppy (technical term) but when using the scoring tool to get underneath the wallpaper, both products worked equally well. I guess it comes down to less of a mess vs cost of doing the job. Do spend the money on the scorer and scraper though.

It was very difficult to scrape the glue off the wall. The paper came off fairly easy but then the glue that was left on the wall was very hard to remove. Many long hours and days of scraping. The DIF did not do any better than warm water and soap in the scraping of the glue in my opinion.

It was good to use if you put it on and left it only for a minute, and then peeled off the paper. If you do it as the directions indicate (let it sit for 10 minutes if I remember correctly), it is a slow, painful process.

Product is ok but not a quick fix. Requires a lot of scrubbing.
