Marlite, Lightly scuff it, prime and paint.

Sweet! Thank you!

any kind Of special paint or primer?

What does you Landlord say?

Looks like marlite in very bad condition. You may have to do more than a light scuff in some areas. You also need to prime it before painting with a high quality bonding sealing primer. I have always used oil based primer on any, I have painted. Once the primer is dry, paint goes on just like on a normal wall.

Awesome thanks for all the info you guys! @catbuilder My landlord lets us work on the place, for money off rent!
