if you are planning to paint later I would remove the wallpaper fix the walls then prime with a high quality primer and leave them as is until you are ready to paint the primer will have a slight sheen and will work as a top coat finish

Hi Wendy, we stock a large range of cast-iron styled radiators that could perhaps help you out. I understand that the original cast iron radiators are quite expensive, but the newer steel designs offer great outputs, are relatively inexpensive in comparison and look the part too. They may not be the ideal 'original' style, but they will help you to keep costs down upstairs and still provide adequate warmth and period styling, plus, we offer extensive guarantees on all of our products. Check them out here and see what we could do to help... http://www.bestheating.com/radiators/traditional-column-radiators.html Good luck with the project. John

We are definitely going for a dedicated floor paint - considering F&B, Rustoleum or Leyland Heavy Duty Floor Paint (ltd colours), or Dulux Floor Paint (more colours).
