I HAVE A 1908 FARMHOUSE THAT HAS TONGUE AND GROVE BOARDS ON THE WALLS WITH WALLPAPER COVERING IT . WHAT CAN I PUT ON TOP OF THE WALLPAPER AND DO A KNOCKDOWN WITH ? OR SHOULD I JUST INSTALL 1/4 INCH SHEET ROCK (TO KEEP THE MOLDINGS SPACING LOOKING GOOD) AND PAINT . I’ AM SELLING IT ONCE IT IS IN BETTER SHAPE INSIDE AND OUT. I HAVE HEARD OF JUST PRIME RING IT AND THROW A KNOCKDOWN ON IT. I’ AM I ON THE RIGHT TRACK ? THANKS DAVE
