View Full Version : Wallpaper on plywood?

04-17-01, 12:35 PM
Help! I live in a house that is over 100 years old. My kitchen had two wallpapers on it that I have recently scraped off. Underneath them I found nothing but plywood, no sheetrock. Is it okay to wallpaper back over this wood or is there something else I should do to prepare my walls. I don't want the texture of the plywood to show thru.
In need of some help!
