  1. We're exposing shiplap in our 30's garage apartment. We aren't flipping or sanding anything. There are some knot holes that we will either patch with wood filler or like was done originally on some areas, nail a small piece of tin over them. So much character! White paint will cover it all...after many tedious hours of pulling off cheesecloth and burning the remaining strings from around the nail heads. I would go insane if I tried to make it perfect so intentional imperfections are my cup of tea. As far as cracks, in another project, we exposed a shiplap ceiling and some of the attic fluff (and 100-year-old filth) was sifting through. We wanted to keep the wood natural so we used a clear silicone to fill the cracks. Goes on white and dries clear. It had a sheen you could see at certain angles but a coat of satin poly over everything made it impercievable.
