Is it ok to paint over pencil marks?

Question

Ok I want to paint my walls, but there are pencil drawings everywhere! Is it ok just to paint over them? Or do I have to do something or get rid of them first?
~Thanks :)

Answer 1

yes its perfectly fine. if its flat on the wall and not bulging out then your good to go.

Answer 2

Actually yes it is good to paint over pencil marks. It depends on what type of paint you use like if you use the water color paint it will just mess up your wall so be careful with the materials you use.

Answer 3

Id say its fine. I can look nice if you can see the lines through the paint sometimes. The only thing i would say, is that if you are using watercolours, a thick pencil line may muddy the paint. You could always rub it out lightly with a rubber first

Answer 4

Just prime if needed and paint.

Answer 5

Yes.
