Minimizing/removing sand-textured paint

19 years ago

One of our bedrooms has been painted with a sand-textured paint. I know that modifications were done to the room in the 1960s, and the textured paint is at least that old. We are preparing to paint the room and I would like to minimize or eliminate this texture. We do not want to skim-coat the walls. I saw on another forum that an expert recommended using two coats of Glidden Ultra-Hide Gripper Primer (heavy bodied) and then two coats of paint. We usually use BM products, so I would prefer to use something in their line, but since it's primer it's not necessary. Is there a better product for this problem? Different solutions? -- TIA
