I'm not sure how others just removed the bottom panels. Mine seem to be layered/overlapped with the top panels by at least a foot (kind of a waste!). And then those are underneath the top/ceiling panels. I can kind of bend them - but can't get to the rivets behind them...So I'm going with the real complete gut and removing all - including the ceiling. And now I've been inspired by some pretty cool renovations I've seen on-line...! Here are some panel pics for your enjoyment - though they probably don't highlight the challenge...

I know what you mean about the layers....doesn't make since really. I guess they can blow and go if they don't cut each piece. It gets the job done faster..never thinking anyone would ever see back there..

I thought the layering was odd as well. When I ran my coax for the new antenae down the wall, the wire I was using to pull it through got stuck going in between 2 layers and I couldn't figure out what was hanging it up. Took a couple of rivets off to find a double panel. Then when I was looking at the bathroom wallpapered aluminum walls, there was a gap behind the medicine cabinet (center bath). I stuck my hand into the gap and for as far as I could reach (2 feet in) there was the regular vinyl clad aluminum behind it. Almost removed the wallpapered aluminum but then thought the curve in the wall wouldn't fit right so just left them. More insulation value?!? maybe?Posted 11-01-2009 at 08:55 PM by Bowmans
