Hi there.

just a quick bit of advice needed please. Our house is around 1930s and are getting each room plastered one by one. The other rooms have been fairly well covered in plaint but also had been wallpapered. This room we are currently doing has just had thick old paint on the walls at some point and has clearly not been most coated when replastered a good while ago.
The paint in this room comes off fairly easily and wondered if it all needs removing prior to having skimmed again.

YouTube link below for a quick video.

thank you.

Mike.

doesn't look like 1930s plaster.

3 or 4 coats of PVA and skim will work.
