Farrow and Ball paint problem
Comments
-
I have just had the same problem, I out a base coat of white on new plaster, then two coats of modern emulsion, then two days later put masking tape on to do another wall another colour and when taking the masking tape off after five minutes the farrow and ball paint came off underneath it... So no delay in removing it, and I ve never had problems with this masking tape before. Any idea on what else I might do instead of masking tape?
If it took everything off back to bare plaster not mist coating the wall may be your issue.0 -
Old threads got to love them F&B does seem to be a marmite paint.
I got some 18** chalky stuff cheap in B&Q when they changed the tins last year
Went on well and gave a lovely finish with 2 coats over part painted part stripped wallpaper walls.0
