Hello.
We have stripped the wallpaper in my daughter’s room to re-decorate and uncovered old, flaky plaster covered with what I believe is Polycell basecoat which is itself peeling quite a lot as well. We’d like the walls to be re skimmed but we’re not sure whether we can just PVA the walls and skim or whether we’re going to have to peel and scrape a full rooms worth of the basecoat off before sizing and then skimming.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
