Hi people,

House built in 1976. Owner builder drywalled then paneled with grooved
plywood paneling as was the rage back then.

I can pull the paneling off and mud the drywall, but it is glued with
what looks like liquid nails and peels off a layer of paper. Not all
the paper just a thin film comes off.

I have been reading up on filling grooves and painting over the
paneling and wondered if I could then do that textured finish I see on
modern drywall.

Is that something that would stick to the paneling after a good clean
then prep with Zinsser 1-2-3 latex primer??

Thanks in advance.

I have painted paneling using the Zinsser primer and the paint did
stick very well. I have never used the textured paint though. I didn't
fill in the grooves. Just painting in the grooves was tedious enough
for me.

I dont see an issue with using a textured paint over a properly primed
ply.

My concern would be , is this the thin ply panelling that is actually a
printed paper surface and can you fill the grooves so there wont be
cracks as the panelling expands and contracts.

why bother?
just rip off the paneling and install 1/4 " drywall then paint it.
better job and no repair work later.

Thanks to all who responded.

I was unaware of the wall liner and 1/4 drywall. I will investigate
further.

The filler "mud" for the grooves is a poly-stuff that is supposed to
expand and contract with the plywood paneling, but I must say the wall
liner and 1/4" drywall seem better options.
