The bedrooms in the house I just bought are covered with wallpaper then
paint.
How can I remove the painted wallpaper then prep the plaster walls for
painting.
AFter that do I need a primer coat? If so what kind of primer?

Another question:

Some rooms are covered in dark paneling. How do I prepare the paneling for
painting it with a light color?

Thanks,

Tom

No it doesn't address the original question but it's still a helpful reply.

The URL above does not address the OP's question. Try again, please.
[hint: the wallpaper is PAINTED OVER. how does the OP remove this
beast?]

Use the same procedure with the painted wallpaper as with vinyl
wallpaper. Paneling is frequently coated with a substance requiring
special solvents. If the back of the paneling is smooth just reverse
it and use Zinners or Killz. Have seen lots of people with peeling
walls who did not reverse or properly prep paneling.
