Do you know what sizing is? Years ago we used to use one gallon of sand n sealer and one gallon of mineral spirits and apply to bare drywall after is was finished of course and then apply our wallcovering such as wallpaper, fabrics, wall carpets or a pva primer. Today we use stripable adhesive on our wallcovering materials and never apply a primer to the sheetrock unless the wallcovering is transparent and you can see the through it and see the raw sheetrock. If the customer still wants to pay for a primer on the raw sheetrcok or the wall can be seen through the wallcovering using a flat white latex paint works just fine and you can thin it down up to 30% before applying to the wall. The stripable paste works very well and the wallcovering can be removed without damaging the sheetrock but you must let it cure at least one week before removing.
