A method and device for modifying a building panel. The building panel including a first surface comprising a facing paper and a second surface comprising a backing paper with a core of calcium sulfate hemihydrate arranged between the facing paper and the backing paper. The method including applying a solution to a predetermined portion of the facing paper, the backing paper, or the facing and backing paper to sufficiently hydrate at least a predetermined portion of the hemihydrate core to convert it to deformable calcium sulfate dihydrate. The solution including at least one alcohol and water. A predetermined force is applied to the deformable portion of the building panel. The predetermined force causing a desired deformation of the predetermined hydrated portion of the building panel. The device for modifying a building panel according to the method includes a building panel mounting structure, a liquid applicator, and a force applicator.
