can someone help i have just stripped a wall of wall paper because the customer wants it painted. the wall has small pits and holes allover it and she does not want it re skimmed so what should i do as i am green to this trade.
also i would like to know how do you fill holes inwalls without it showing through finished work because it looks crap cheers daz plasterer by trade
 
Might be an idea to fill what you can and rub it down then use a good grade lining paper. This might help to bring it back to a decent surface for painting.

wllas seem okay just to fill i have taken off wallpaper. is there away to stop the filler showing through finishe work . this has happened before and you can see it with the naked eye wher it has been filled because it dries a different shade, does this make sense
