Gawd I am fed up. I live in a newbuild (2001). The walls are plastered board (drywall). The previous occupants left the walls in a state with mislined dado rails etc.
I have had to rectify there incompetence. I have rubbed, filled and painted many coats of polyfilla basecoat which isn't cheap and still I am not happy with my bedroom walls.
They look fine but once the topcoat is applied (magnolia) you can in certain light see the imperfections in the wall which is annoying.
When I have the bedside lamp on it does show the imperfections so is my solution 'lining paper?'
If so, what do I have to apply on the surface so that in the future the lining paper was removed it won't take the paint with it!
What preparation to the painted plasterboard is needed? Anymore tips is appreciated
