Hello,
I'm getting ready to clean up and repair my plaster walls and ceilings. I've done a fair amount of research, but would love some input from anyone with experience.
As you can see from the pictures the plaster is covered with a thick paper, which is cracked and pealing. There are also some hairline cracks in the plaster.
My plan is to remove all the paper, fix the cracks and holes, and paint. In the past when I've painted on plaster, once the paint dries it turns yellow. I probably wasn't using the correct type of paint. What should I use? Any other suggestions? I know it will be messy and time consuming.
Thanks,
Caleb
