Black Paint. Stars. YUCK!?

Question

We bought a house. One bedroom has black paint with thousands upon thousands of tiny stars mixed in the paint for weird texture. We're going to re-paint the room but is there an easy way to remove those stubburn stars?? We've used a scraper but as the stars fall it leave little dips in the wall. Somebody help me...please!

Answer 1

Re sheetrock, tape, spackle, and paint.

Answer 2

You can use wallpaper , or use the stars!Paint your room dark blue and make the stars white.Then get furniture to match the walls.This might be hard,but it's worth it!

Answer 3

Wall paper? There is a wall paper you can use to cover over imperfections in walls. It might be an option.

Answer 4

My suggestion would be liberal use of knockdown, or some type of rough texturing for the wall before priming and painting.  Priming the wall is critical!
