Hi, I am new to this forum and I am desperate to find a way to get this problem sorted. I had the walls in my hall, stairs and landing plastered about 8 months ago. After letting the plaster dry completely for a few weeks, I put 2 coats of paint with water on the walls and ceilings to prime them and haven't touched it since. Now I have come to paint it, whilst rolling on the new paint, the old paint is peeling off. I am assuming it is because there may be dust under the first coats of primer. I have sanded back the affected areas to the plaster, cleaned with a damp sponge, then repainted with a paint and water mix but as soon as the edges of the sanded area get wet they blister again. I don't won't to waste paint and don't really fancy removing all the paint from the entire ceiling or wall that are affected. Any advice would be great!!
