How do you fill in the cracks of wall paneling?

Question

I live in a mobile home from the 70's the walls are painted but I hate the paneling look and want to fix it but need to know what work the best and longest.

Answer 1

I would prime the walls and then use drywall compound and lay it on with a large putty knife(6") and give it a plastered wall effect. After it dries prime it with primer tinted close to your pain color. Let dry and paint with your wall color.

Answer 2

i would use spackle that you can find at lowes or for that matter any hardware store

then you could sand it to get it smoothe and paint!

Answer 3

Buy some pre-pasted wall paper. in your choice and paper it.......You can use 2 different colors with a chair rail.......or paint  the bottom half a matching color.......Just hang the paper, the grooves will not show after the paper dries.....I have done several walls this way.......

Answer 4

I put 3/8 sheetrock over all the walls and covered up the paneling then spackeled and painted the room looks great it took me three days to do this

Answer 5
