Thanks all. These suggestions are about what I thought too. Painting over wall paper, I've seen that before. The long term makes it even harder to get rid of the paper. The glossy red paint, I think that can be handled. Hopefully we will find the perfect house without any of those wall problems to be fixed.

I've worked on small areas and I may not have been using the best techniques. It was a major project and the removal took off some of the sheet rock cover, as well as leaving behind wallpaper paste.
