Hi Guys,

I've lining papered my walls recently and went over the gaps with a fine filler and sanded back. I think I sanded a bit too much so now that I've started painting the walls there is a 'shiny/smooth' seam visible at every gap. What are my best options? Keep painting until finally it disappears? I've put a few coats on now and it improves slightly each time but still visible...

Cheers,
Oly

Yes it is the smooth surface as opposed to the slight texture on paper.
Try a couple of coats up and down the seams with a small roller feathering in on each side to build up a texture then a full coat over the wall with a normal roller.
