Hindsight is a wonderful thing ☹️
But yes, you are right.....

I'm no real painter...but Plasterer I am.Id never seal plaster with PVA.Painting new plaster a watered down mist coat of paint,anything thicker and the plaster won't absorb it.Dont forget to let plaster fully dry out first.
Right sorry it's not much help to you Skolly 😁
I put in my official complaint to Valspar this morning including this rather damning picture to illustrate the Problem.
View attachment 652536
Now I just need to wait for their response on how they intend to rectify the mess....
Bad workman allways blames his tools...should of been the reply 😂The reply has come back from Valpar and it is frankly pathetic!
Basically this is what they have said..
"It's disappointing when projects don't go to plan. If you would like a voucher for a tub of free paint please reply to request this."
No suggestions as to why it didn't work. No pointing out errors in my preparation or the conditions in which the paint was applied. Just ' the paint didn't work, here have some more'!
I'm not accepting this as the product is clearly not fit for purpose or is faulty and I am just working on my (polite!) response to point this out and make them accept responsibility for their sh1te!
Leyland Trade, (or most trade paints) seem to be the way to go. Not the watered down shi1te they sell for DIY use.
Yes but even some so called trade paints are sh1te as well ! Leyland I think are owned by Johnstone paints ? They also make/ supply paint for own brand such Homebase , wickes !
