Hello, I'm currently redoing my bathroom and im about to fit some replacement gypsum plaster coving and I've patch filled various areas on the walls to try and get a nice finish when I paint the walls. What should I use to prime the coving? And should I prime the walls first to reduce the...

Thanks for your help, much appreciated.
