Stripped wallpaper off today, came off great and the walls are spot on, way better than i expected. Just had to fill in a few holes where pictures etc had been.
The plan was to re-paper, as i didnt know what the walls would be like, but now would prefer to emulsion. The wallpaper had been on over emulsion painted walls, so im not down to bare plaster.
Can i just paint straight onto the wall, or will it need washing down to remove any wallpaper paste residue? It feels and looks ok now, but feels tacky when dampened, (or for the forum perverts, slippery when wet), so i guess its paste.
Would emulsion paint reactivate it....cause staining?
