Just started decorating the back bedroom and been doing it for a week now, not a happy bunny at all, anyway, in certain patches above an old picture rail that has been taken off, the paint just will not stay on the wall ????
I have sanded it, painted it with watered down paint, I have done this about 6 times, a lot of it has stayed on but near to the ceiling and in 2 football sized patched as soon as it dries it peels off and it feels wet when you pull it off, but the wall is not wet ?????
Any ideas, I think it was replastered at some point don't know when as the house is about 80 years old ????
Would be glad of any tips, as it is doing my head in now, the room looks good except this 2 patches that stick out a mile..................
Just about to start on the front bedroom which I think will be the same, but going to put lining paper up first then paint it, but just wanted to ask will the paper stick to the wall or is that going to peel off like the paint, am i wasting my time and money papering it ??????
