thanks....

the faux advice is great. the reason that we are considering it is twofold. one, is after stripping the wallpaper off (which i did already), the adhesive left some divets. i sanded as much as i could and filled hole forever, but when i kilz'd it, you can see the irregularities on the wall. my wife tried putting up a couple of strips of wallpaper and you could see the irregularities. so she thought we could just texture the walls and then do some fun painting inside. the real question is what you posed at the end. is there a way i can texture the walls that wont come off with flexing.....

whether or not it was the right thing to take the wallpaper off now is s moot point because i did. i think it was because there was some bubbling at joints that couldnt have been fixed and that was why we wanted to redo it.

any suggestions for putting a slight texture on the wall that will stand up to flexing? the plywood below the wallpaper had been filled in where sheets of plywood went and over where the rivets were recessed to hold the panels up from the factory. i filled screw holes etc.

it is not bad, we just want it to be perfect.

thanks

tom
