Hi all,
I've just removed some wallpaper in my 1930's house and would like to paint the walls. The plaster is sound, previously un-painted but has a lot of fine cracks in it. These cracks are too small and far too many to fill by hand. Is there any way I can rescue this wall for painting - I've found products such as polycell basecoat which claims to cover fine cracks, or polycell finishing skim, but the reviews I've read on both of these aren't encouraging! I can't afford get someone in to re-plaster or even skim. Any suggestions? Is there any wonder paint that will fill the cracks
