Can I do a light single skim over to hide marks/gouges from scraping wallpaper off a 5mt lg drywall.
Using a ready mixed skim from a tub, a roller and skim spatula
Dont really warrant a replaster over.

I used Easifil to go over a not to badly damaged wall similar sounding to yours. I used a plasterers trowel and a creamy mix of Easifil. I was looking at filling the imperfections and getting a smooth face but it was a big area so this was quick. I lightly sanded when dry and got it really smooth. It worked well as I recall.
