I've just removed woodchip paper from my walls only to find gloss paint underneath. Lots of it has pulled away so I'm left with bare (grey) plaster with hundreds of patches. I want to paint the walls with emulsion but not sure how to proceed. Should I:
1. put up lining paper to cover surface
2. try to remove paint patches with a scraper. Will take ages.
3. Use some sort of paint remover. I don't like Nitromors because it's a carcinogen.
What would a professional decorator do? Many thanks.
