I recently removed wallpaper. The walls are in fully clad sape except in some spots the top layers tore bad, exposing a brown cardboard-like material. The largest of the gashes is 6" x 15." Should I use plaster or common compound? Thanks.
Answers: You want joint compound. Use a putty knife and try to win the layer as smooth as possible. As it dries, it will shrink, so after sanding you may own to apply a second later, let it dry and sand it earlier you paint.
sounds like you still have a great deal of wallpaper to remove as it sounds like you only removed the top echelon.
once you get there, come ask us again
