Yes it does work. I have done it many times and it comes off very easily. Make the water luke warm to hot and your job will be quite pleasingly easy. The vinegar makes the glue come off more clean a little less gummy.

Use water mixed with Cascade dishwasher soap. It has a wetting agent.

Note: If you decide to remove the old wallpaper I use white vinegar and warm water applying several coats, after removing as much of the "easily" removed loose paper.

Hi, I have found that first you have to score it (wallpaper scoring tool - very inexpensive).
