I'm remodeling my room and the first thing I've run into is fixing my dry wall. When I was younger I taped up about 30 posters on the wall and upon taking them down, ripped the white paint from my dry wall in little coin-sized pieces. I would like to know what's the best to way to fix this before painting my walls (a dif color)?

Someone suggested spackle and just go over those spots because they're so small but I'm taking any advice I can get. Also, I would like to know if primer is necessary before painting. The spots are small but there are quite a few of them here and there, but not worth an entire can of primer.

Any advice would be appreciated!
