I need advice on how to finish this wall after I pulled off wood paneling. This is in my bike room, and the whole room is covered in this paneling. I will be taking it all off at some point, but I need a little advice on how to start. I was thinking of taking a rotary sander and sanding down the wall where there are rips in the wall and glue on it to smooth those down. Then to take some kind of putty and fill in the holes and gaps. Below is a link to a few of the photos of the wall. Thank you!

Use a paint scraper/putty knife to get off the glue - sanding that will probably gum up the sandpaper and be very annoying (not to mention making some nasty dust). Then cover the holes with spackling. At that point you can sand, or just paint if you're not super picky.
