Mrs. Escarole wanted a mirror removed from the master bathroom. She had tried to remove it herself but the mirror would not budge. She called my repair service to remove a 48 by 60 inch mirror.

This post shows four steps to use steel wool to help remove the adhesive from the wall. 

Step 1: Above fig.1 shows the coarse #3 steel wool used to help remove the tar from the textured walls.
