Read the top post in this section of the forum. One word of caution during the removal portion. I STRONGLY urge you to wear a top quality filtered mask during the stripping evolution. Mold/mildew can make you sick or even kill you. Keep children out of the house/immediate area during stripping. Finally, wash the walls with a strong bleach solution to kill residuals after the stripping process. A stain killing primer wouldn't hurt either. You can allieviate future outbreaks by using the fan/opening the window during your showers. This is the major contributor to bathroom mold/mildew issues, non-use of the installed fan.
