Q: Does peel-and-stick wallpaper hold up in a bathroom?

• <div><p>Many types of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-apply-peel-and-stick-wallpaper.htm">peel-and-stick wallpaper</a> can hold up to environments with some level of moisture, such as bathrooms&mdash;especially peel-and-stick wallpapers made of vinyl or polyester.

Q: Can German schmear be removed?

• <div><p>Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home&rsquo;s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.</p></div>
