HGTV Tip: Hot water and fabric softner in a pray bottle. It will loosen the glue.

Re: how to remove wallpaper
you can also rent a steamer....I did it in an apt once and it went surprisingly quick with the steamer

Re: how to remove wallpaper
I used a spray bottle containing vinegar & water and it worked like a charm!

Re: how to remove wallpaper
I don't know about wall paper that has been painted over, but we took ours down with two methods-- some came off with just the steamer and scraping, the rest needed DIF (2-3 coats in some spots) to come off. None of it is easy or fun.
GL!
