Best Answer: Its OK to skim coat or texture over a painted wall, and yes prep work is everything for how well the job will look and how well it will last. SO do not skimp on the prep. Watch out for wall paper, the water in the mud will cause it to wrinkle and leave air pockets and bubbles the paper.
This can involve the application of a single coat of mud to hide minor imperfections, or it can involve the use of several coats to build up a smooth, finished surface. In addition, skim coating can be done over a small area, or it can be done over an entire wall/ceiling surface.pply as many subsequent skim coats as needed to build a smooth finish over the repair area. As you work, if there is excessive rippling or other surface imperfections, sand them lightly and wipe the dust away with a damp rag before applying another coat.
