My. Gosh. You are <strong>SO</strong> right, John! I didn't even think about that when I wrote the article. And...I rarely remove wallpaper...I just paint over it. Lol! ;) But yeah, that top layer of the drywall is there to "protect" it and "seal" it. Without it you'll have trouble. Thanks, John...er...I mean "Captain Drywall"!
