Hey all, I'm painting my room walls and getting tiny blisters on many areas of one wall. The other 3 walls seem to be free of any blisters.
I originally wallpapered the walls then decided to take the paper off. It left residue paster so tried to clean that off. Then someone said to pva 50% water to seal in the left over paste. Obviously big mistake so I sanded them down and applied gardz primer sealer. Them gave a few coats of contractor emulsion white as under coat. Not the best stuff but too late. So you can see I have had a nightmare finishing this room ☹
So back to the blisters, I treated this wall exactly the same as the others. I noticed the blistering when wet paint is applied as it appears flat when dry. It blistered more when I applied the vinyle emulsion over the contractor undercoat. Could it be the original paint on the wall reacting to the dampness of the paint?
