Good question Lenny. I have the same thought. The walls are good but stained in spots so I would love to be able to just cover the stains. Someone has to have tried. Looking to hear of success.

Old modellers' trick - to cover old paint or any design which might otherwise show through, the first coat should be metallic - like aluminum.

Lenny's is fabric, and the paint turned out fine.

I think I would make the first coat KILZ. This would seal any stains and give the paint a good surface to stick to.
