How to Remove Contact Paper From Dry Wall

1). Use a hair dryer set on a medium setting to apply heat to a corner of the contact paper. The heat from the hair dryer will soften the adhesive.
2). Keep the hair dryer a few inches above the contact paper and move in a steady, back-and-forth motion. While applying the heat, begin to gently pull the corner of the contact paper away from the drywall.
3). Continue applying heat and slowly pulling the contact paper off the drywall until you have removed all traces of the contact paper.
4). Fill a container with a citrus-based adhesive remover. Dip a clean sponge into the remover. Scrub the drywall with the sponge to remove the adhesive residue that the contact paper left behind.
