I'm an amateur repainting my mum's living room. We're aiming to repaint it quickly for the house sale, but the room is filled with impractically large and heavy antique furniture pieces. Steaming off the wallpaper is risky for the furniture, and the chemical stripping option is quite time-consuming.
Considering that the new owners will want to redecorate once they move in, I'm exploring the most cost-effective way to paint over the existing wallpaper. Would a few layers of regular white paint do the job in the short term, or should I invest in pricier primer paint for an undercoat?
