Hi All,
I'm new to the forum
Sorry if this is a little long:
I'm decorating our family bathroom, I'm a novice at painting although done a few rooms in our previous and current house, generally without issue!
Decided to do the family bathroom thinking it would be easy. Choose a Mould Protection Bathroom Paint to go over the current paint not sure what type was on previously)
All went well round 2 walls of the bathroom, I got to the wall above the window and a massive bubble (like huge!) started to form (I was rollering the walls - brushes at the edges)
Then the wall next to this a small bubble formed. I didn't pop this and left it dry back to the wall.
I popped the large bubble and peeled the paint away...in the ceiling above the large bubble clearly there has been a leak from the roof as there are yellowish stains on the ceiling but there is no leak now and no damp is hitting this area from above.
I peeled and sanded back to plaster board the whole wall with the bubble on and went for a white paint to do the whole room in a base coat before putting on Bathroom Protection paint again.
I have just finished painting the room in the base white but I still couldn't roller the area where the massive bubble was, but I have been able to paint it with a brush and the paint has adhered.
BUT - Have just rollered the ceiling and in the same area where the stain was, the roller just pulled all the pain off in big thick strips of slightly damp paint and pulled it all back to plaster board!
I am completely confused on what to do, do I need to strip the whole ceiling back (like I did with the wall with the bubble on) and walls back to plaster board and start a fresh!?
I've attached a picture if that helps! You can see the water stain on the plaster as well
Sorry for the long post, but any help really appreciated! I am at my wits end with this room! It's been a nightmare!!!
