We have attempted to avoid plastics in the past.
There may be some compromises in the future. ;-)
Thanks for suggesting this.

Sorry, but I have no suggestions for the sublayers.

Like you and the roughness of the plaster, my husband agonizes over needing
perfect sheetrock seams and sanding. We have some rooms which have been
waiting 15 years to be done right. I've considered murals and have seen a
home where an artistically-inclined friend has used them to good effect.
Maybe now that the youngest has declared an art major in college, I can
turn her loose on the walls in the name of practice or project!
