Faux Painting Over Wallpaper

I wallpapered over paneling. It has alot of air bubbles. I have slit the bubbles opened and have placed glue inside, still bubbles. So, I have decided that I want to faux paint over the wallpaper to make the bubbles look less noticeable. Do you have any advice?

Hi

If you use a very patterned or textured faux finish… the bubbles should be much less noticeable. I don't mean using texture paint… although others have had fantastic results with this. By textured I meanthat the faux finish shouldn't be so subtle that the bubbles are noticeable.

My other suggestion would be that painting over the wallpaper may cause more bubbles… so you should try faux painting in an unnoticeable area first to see if it lifts or bubbles the paper.

Hope this is helpful
