Would be very much appreciated if I could get some advice on the following.
I recently removed some textured ceiling paint from my landing ceiling as it was flaking off. 90% of it came away by just peeling it off by hand without even using a scraper. The surface it has left is powdery and it's possible to see the pinkish plaster under it. Because of its condition, with cracks and many imperfections, I'm looking to re-do it with another coat of textured paint but I really need some advice as to the prep that I need to do first. Would it be best giving it a wash down, a watered down emulsion coat then applying the new textured finish or should I PVA it? I've taken some photos which will hopefully help.
Many thanks
