Painting over Pale Yellow Wall General decorating topics, questions and answers. find help, tips and advice on completing your decorating projects

I currently have pale yellow walls in my hall, stairs and landing and I am going to change this to a really pale blue. Will I need to prime the walls first or paint them white or will 2-3 coats of the pale blue cover the yellow? I have read elsewhere that yellow can sometimes turn blue over the slightly green.

Hi markbrick,
Depends on the quality of the paint you are going to use. Suggest you get a test pot and try a small area.
