Hi Guys,
First post on this billiant website. Apologies in advance for any repetition.
We have had a bit of a disaster whilst painting our brand new house. We decided to paint over the standard magnolia which was applied by the builders in several rooms.
It was all going so well until we tackled the sitting room. On the chimney breast wall the paint came off in huge clumps while we were rollering over it. I think the plaster may have been too damp when the builders applied the first coats of paint. Now it wouldn't be so bad if this hadn't happened above the focal point of the whole room!!
My hushand then started stripping off the rest of the paint. (Against my wishes!). But you know how it is! In short the wall is now a mess as all the paint wasn't removed. some of it is too well absorbed.
Sorry that this is so long winded. Has anyone ever used the basecoat made by dulux which apparently employs polyfilla technology! If so, do you think it would save my wall?
All suggestions welcome and greatly appreciated.
Thanks Mona
