Try using a sponge on your drywall. Use a sponge instead of a sander on those drywall seams. With practice, a wet sponge is just as effective in smoothing out the seams of a drywall job as is careful sanding. One great thing is that sponging isn't as dusty as sanding.

Paint stripes on walls in the color of your paneling before the paneling is installed. The old wall tends to show no matter what you do when installing paneling. To minimize this, try to measure where the panels meet prior to installing it. Use paint that matches the paneling.
