20 yr old bathroom paint. Smoker. Hiring painter. Painter wants to sand down to drywall. Will use 2 coats latex over one coat primer. Will this work the best?

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
WOW!!! What a Ride!
I agree with IMERZ--sanding down to drywall would be difficult and messy and would fuzz up the drywall paper which would make a messy looking job when you painted it.
Dano, thanks so much for this advise. I don't know if I can retrieve the other messages but will give it a try. I am taking notes for the painter. Spirit
and grind the crud into the DW....
