Hi,
I have a room which is painted with a vinyl silk sort of paint directly onto plaster. Anyway, on one wall I rubbed it all down to get rid of the shine and provide a key, sugar-soaped it and washed it clean, ready to re-skim it.
However, it was whilst it was wet that I noticed that the paint can be peeled off of the wall. Maybe it’s just the paint, maybe the plaster wasn’t sealed, etc.
Now I peeled off the paint off one wall, and it took fekking ages in places but come off quite easy in others. I don’t particularly want to peel it off the whole room if it’s not needed, but I’m worried about PVA and plaster wetting it up again and making it possibly come off the wall in the future.
Anyone had any experience with this sort of thing?
I thought about using WBA, but isn’t that just PVA with aggregate in it? Surely that would wet the paint still?
By the way, this is a DIY project in my own house.
