Paint interior wall

Hello, I am Stefan and new here. I have built a hall that is not heated. It is made of Ytong. Inside, I have now put drywall panels on the walls. Now I would like to paint the walls. Can I use regular wall paint for that?

Thanks
Regards
Stefan

Hi Stefano,

I myself have also rented a hall and can help you a bit. Yes, with drywall panels you definitely have to consider quite a few things! I can't recommend just starting right away. The best way is to proceed as follows. First, you should cleanly plaster all joints and screw holes. Also, apply at least two priming coats with deep primer using a brush, roller, or masonry brush. If wallpapering is planned, a coat of wallpaper primer should be applied beforehand. After plastering and cleaning, you should use painter’s fleece to cover unevenness.

@Ruediger... Where is the painter's fleece supposed to go??? @Stefan... The drywall panels are installed on the wall with setting plaster? Since it is unheated, I assume it will be a hobby or storage room, after filling and sanding the joints, just use simple wall paint and that's fine.
