Thank you so much for this video! This is exactly what I was looking for. My current wall had patches due to the old paint that tore off after removing sticky adhesives. 10/10!

I’m trying this tomorrow because my parents said I can use duct tape on the wall for my acoustic foam panels but when it came to taking them off, it made a huge mess of these😂

This is what I did (not paint yet) and wife yelling at me that I’m doing it wrong….she said we should take off the Sheetrock and replace it. Told her it’s all her, her fault since she wanted Thea big shelves on wall then now rearranging room and need shelves off to recenter it with everything…….wives keep you busy FFS.
