Painting DS's room. The previous paint was slightly shiny, I'd assumed it was satinwood paint.
I've sanded, sugar soaped and rinsed. Started painting with Dulux emulsion and the paint started to blister. The blisters turned to cracks and the new paint is now peeling in large strips and taking the shiny yellow with it. Underneath appears to be a layer of emulsion with some kind of primer over.
What on EARTH do I do? I guess I have to try and remove the peeling stuff. Most, but not all is coming off.
Could the previous owners have had kitchen paint in a bedroom? Where did I go wrong?
