There is a product called Wall Doctor here which is a sort of heavy wall paper
for putting over paneling and other less than perfect surfaces before painting.
It covers the grooves in paneling so you can just paint right on over it. I
think I would fill the cracks with something like Polyfilla anyway just to
improve the surface that much more before papering over it but it does do a
good job.

I thinkit was Clifford and Jennifer who spoke of painting paneling. did
you really do it and if so how did it turn out and what did you use
for paint. did you use like the little foam sponges on a stick t get
int the grooves ? thanks Lee
