Hallo,
I have a problem with my daughter's bedroom wallpaper. It is slightly textured - just a little bit raised as the walls are quite bad underneath. I painted it many years ago , using it as a lining paper but it has been a nightmare ever since. The little bobbles tend to attract the dirt and spoil the paint finish. I'm forever trying to wash it. It is now due for a paint but I don't want the same problem. I really haven't got time to strip the paper off and start again so I wonder if anyone has any tips to either flatten the bobbles before I start painting or cover it up with something first like some special paint or just anything that will help. Both money and time are short so would appreciate any good advice. Thank you!
