restoring the old plaster in a 100 year old house here. kinda working room by room doing other projects as i go.
problem: the original walls had wallpaper, not painted. the original wallpaper was painted over, most needs to be reskimmed. i've meticulously removed wallpaper and paste residue to this point, but am wondering if there's an easier way, especially when it gets down to just the lower bit of the paper and the glue residue.
seems from searching around that alot of pros recommend zinnser guardz primer or shellac primer over the wallpaper stripped walls. is this viable? how clean must the walls really be?
