Hi there, I'm new to the forum and looking for some sound advice.
I've just started stripping the wallpaper in our living room. Underneath is one coat of white paint and then bare plaster. As you can see from the pics, a lot of the white paint has come away with the wallpaper leaving the grey plater showing underneath.
My question is, how can I make this surface "paintable" without getting the plasterer in or using lining paper?
The remaining paint isn't "flaking" or peeling at all. I certainly don't want to sand it all off. Could I simply use two or three coats of primer then add two of colour?
Cheers
