Hello,
Now that the question of wallpaper or not has been answered, I would like to ask about wall paint recommendations.
At the hardware store, there is a brand called Alpina; it’s called Renovierweiss and costs 25 euros for a 10l (2.6 gallons) bucket.
Is it suitable to buy this, or should something higher quality be used, such as Brillux, for the walls?
Regards, Markus

I'll put it this way. The price difference isn't without reason. I have no experience with the DIY store stuff. But don’t save money in the wrong place. You probably won’t need more than 10 buckets. Just my opinion 😎

Don't use Alpina. It's the worst quality, even if the media portrays it differently with cute Persian cat ads.

If you want to paint directly onto the plaster, I recommend silicate paint because it is vapor permeable. Of course, it can also be used on paintable fleece wallpaper.

I have never had any problems with Alpina paint, cheap paint from Obi, or anything in between. They all make the wall white.
