Painting over previously wallpapered wall....

[PTR]

Owa lass wants a bit up for a feature wall.
I've telt her that if she wants it up, then she needs to do it, as I'm not wallpapering. So she's now not so keen

Funny how all the DIY work is still "men's work" isn't it?

Saying that, my mam used to all the wallpapering back in the day & a fair bit of other decorating jobs. Also the garden was her realm (apart from cutting the grass). But she's very much into her arts & crafts, so enjoys creating stuff

Try Valspar has it’s own primers worked well for me, i won’t cover in one coat though. Just made sure walls were smooth.

Get some sugar soap n wash the excess paste off.
