• Technically, yes you can. If you prime it well and use the correct product. I personally never do it because you can’t be sure the paper won’t peel up at one of the seams. I suggest one of two things. 1- Remove the paper, repair the walls and apply texture. 2- Have the paper removed and put up new paper. These are your two best options.
