Can I hang lining paer over very slight woodchip

[marymary]

The woodchip in general is ancient and hardly has any chip left in it - It's above the picture rail all along my hall and I was plannng to paper below and above the picture rail in a grade 4 lining paper and paint over it.

Get a steam stripper, take it off, do it properly, grief always comes from short cuts.

i may be wrong but i was thinking if you do paper over woodchip, would the "chips" bulge for want of a better word through the new layer?

£23 from Wi**es, a bl**dy useful tool too.

Is it possible to use lining paper over cork wall tiles? Its just such a nightmare to remove the old ones . . .

Geoff,
Anytning is possible. It just isn't a very good idea if you want a decent and durable job.
