Answer 1

sand down flakes and uses poly filla on cracks or holes. alternatively you could put lining paper on the walls for a simpler but less effective solution

Answer 2

There are several techniques that can be used to accomplish what you are asking. A good Faux Painter can work wonders with problematic walls and ceilings. My wife is professional Faux Painter in the Spring/Houston Texas area and I've seen her work wonders by mixing a bit of paint with vinyl spackling and pasting it on.

See her website and if you send photos and questions, she will probably be happy to assist you.

Good luck and I hope this helps!
