painting plaster

When painting plaster I realise that the norm is to do a mist coat first, but will this still be the case if the plaster was preveiosly covered with wallpaper?

In order to get some of the (up to 5 layers) of paper off the wall I had to score it and have damaged the plaster underneath, is it possible to re-polish finished plaster that has been on the wall for some time? or should I just fill and sand as necessary?

Also make sure you wash all the old paste off otherwise you will end up with even more problems with the paint reacting with the paste0
