I have old plaster walls and I just had some small spots repaired with plaster and sanded. The walls are yellow and I'm planning on painting. Do I have to prime the whole wall or just the areas that I just repaired?
PS- I'm painting the walls a soft brown color.

If its true plaster, you need to let it cure for at least 30 days before doing anything to it. Then only the repaired spots require priming.
