We recently leased (possible purchase in the future) an older home approximately 80 years old. The home is in great shape but desperately needs updating on the inside. The bathroom walls are 9 feet high, no vent or window, and the material used is a formica type , 50ish style plastic covering. The sheets are not glued down, they may be tacked in places. The seams are covered with a tin-like material. I have never seen anything like it before and it might have looked great way back when, it really is an eyesore now. Its white with gold starbursts. Can i paint over it?? I would rather not take it down and replace it with drywall at this time. Any help would be greatly appreciated. leather

we made a colossal mistake and painted latex over oil paint in the bathroom - dark burgundy color. after 3 coats of paint it is still streaky and terrible looking - what can we do?
