Hi
We have recently stripped an old feature wall which was papered over new plaster painted with a watered down emulsion basecoat. Although there is no damage to the plaster work some of the paint has come off with the paper leaving patches of bare plaster (some pictures attached).
I am worried when I paint with emulsion the uneven layers will show through my paint and will stick out like a sore thumb compared to the other walls (which were plastered at the same time and have never had wallpaper).
Any advice will be appreciated - do i start by repainting the wall with watered down emulsion as before or is there anything else I need to think of?
Thanks in advance.
