Test before choosing a method
Paper type, adhesive, wall age, and whether the drywall was primed affect how easily the covering releases.
Adhesive and damaged paper
Residual glue can interfere with paint. Torn drywall facing may need sealing before skim coating or spot repair.

The scope can include removal, cleaning, repairs, sanding, sealing or priming, and finish painting.
