Gloss paint and plaster left after stripping wallpaper - should I use primer?

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 3.05 PM

After stripping wallpaper, there is some gloss paint and some plaster left. Also the ceiling has been replastered. Should I use a primer on all surfaces or a watery emulsion? Thanks

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi, I would use a watered based emulsion wait for it to dry and then put your desired colour on. I would suggest 2 coats to get the best finish on the walls.

Hi, you have to get eclipse (highly recommended for plaster) and cover all surfaces.
