Refinishing Textured Wallpaper Walls in Mobile Home

What is the best thing to do with walls in a double wide trailer? They have those textured wallpapered walls in them. Do they paint well? Should I cover them with drywall? All I know is they are ugly. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Painting them works just fine and being that they are textured they'll look really nice using your favorite color(s). Many people pay a lot of money to have that textured look ;-)

I painted over mine with latex paint a few years ago and I haven't had a problem.

Another mobile home question, LOL! There's a great forum for help on mobile home decorating, repair, etc., which I found here on ThriftyFun.com. I live in a mobile home, and I'm still learning about it, so I don't know the answer to your question. However, you'll find people who can answer you, at this site:

(I'm not spamming or anything, I just don't want to give any mobile home advice that would do more harm than good. So it's best to ask the people who know more about these homes than I do.)
