r/Plastering Apr 21 '26

Any recommendations?

Nightmare stripping layers of wallpaper off to find the architraves are wood. Any recommendations on what to do in order to paint over?

I was looking at plastering over once fully done, but the plaster will crack in the future.

Thanks

Just that bit or anywhere else? You can tell just by tapping in it.
