textured wall and sanding it
3 years ago
The first image is a textured wall in my home (likely 50s or 60s) the second image is what is behind wallpaper in another room. Is it likely the person who put up wallpaper sanded down the texture to apply the paper. And any advice one painting over this if it is sanded down?
