House fix works. Just smooth it out nicely. It's hard to sand. All loose fluff must be removed. Otherwise, it will come off when you apply the glue. Try dampening with a moist sponge. Many rent a steam machine. Should work well. I usually paint with some cheap ceiling or wall paint. There are different special paints for this, but they are expensive. After painting, you can see immediately if/where it comes off. Sand/spackle there and add a bit more paint. If you want a belt and suspenders, apply a renovation wallpaper once you have stabilized the surface with paint. Then you have a completely stable and neutral surface to start over from. Renovation wallpaper is expensive, but then you'll avoid problems forever.
I'll try that, we're slowly but surely removing more and more. Will also change the floor and more. The important thing is that it turns out well and we're not in a hurry at all.

After being away, I have resumed the project. The problem is that the adhesive is stuck like a rock. I spent a few hours yesterday with barely noticeable results, and today I'm using steam which works better. But in some places, the paper on the drywall comes off even when I work without steam. Can't you seal or something? This is how it looks now.
The very first is indeed a pipe for the element, district heating, the trim will of course be nailed higher up when we get that far. We take it slow but sure.
An odd place for a heating pipe even though I know it exists in many houses. Just make sure you don't have any connections in the heating pipe hidden under the trim. For new installations, it's not allowed, for renovations I don't know. Not suitable in any case.
After being away, I have resumed the project. The problem is that the adhesive is as hard as a rock. I spent a few hours yesterday with hardly any noticeable progress, and today I'm using steam, which works better. But in some areas, the paper on the gypsum board also comes off even when I'm not using steam. Can't you seal or something? This is what it looks like now. [image]
There are various types of sealer available from most manufacturers. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. If it doesn't work, the paper fuzz lifts and bubbles. You just have to scrape it off and prime again. You keep at it until it's done. I usually apply renovation wallpaper when I've had enough. It would definitely cover what's visible in the picture, but of course, it doesn't fix major unevenness.
Does this work as a blocker? https://beckers.se/produkter/inomhus/grund/isolerfarg
It was difficult to find blocking primer, seen Bin and Gradz abroad but it seems hard to find something similar in stores in Sweden (preferably Bauhaus or a similar chain).
