Remodeling house for sale, water damage to imitation wood panelling

That's a problem a cover-up won't solve; that's one that needs fixing
correctly. No decent inspector is going to miss it and it's going to
raise the question of mold and what else is behind the paneling.

And, of course, the disclosure form is going to have to admit there has
been a water problem.

This house has some serious problems clearly. Hoping to get a quick
sale is probably out of the question unless a fair amount of work is done.

Some of what you've described is cosmetic; this isn't--it's a
fundamental problem.
