What is the easiest way to remove old emulsion paint from a plastered wall?
When I removed the old wallpaper, some of the old emulsion paint underneath came away with the paper in many places, and the differing levels would show up if I simple painted over everything. So Ideally I'd like to remove all the old paint, if it's not too much of a PITA to do.
Failing that, can anyone suggest a way to sort of fill in the bits where the old emulsion came away? Polyfilla perhaps?
I don'tt want to re-paper the wall; I want to use emulsion for the final finish.
Many thanks
Al
