Hello Everybody,
I am in the process of removing a wallpaper border in a bedroom. I don't know anything about wallpaper borders, I'm assuming that the most recent layer of paint matches evenly with the wallpaper border so that when the border is removed an uneveness occurs. I've read in another forum that I should spackle any irregularities in the wall, then sand it down, and then use a polybased filler??? Could somebody please explain to me what that means and how I should go about painting this room so that no irregularities are visible? One of my concerns is that where the border used to be is now a yellowish colored stain. Also, do I have to use a primer before painting this room?
I have another room I have to paint that has no issues except for some nail holes. Do I spackle, sand, and still use primer as well before painting?
Thank you all very much.
