Powderyand Damp Looking Stain on Newly Decorated Wall

by Tommyfromhull » Mon Feb 12, 2018 9:18 am

Hello,

We recently decorated our home and patched up some of the rough plaster on an interior wall next to some verticals radiators. After it dried, we then painted the walls and noticed these strange patches appearing. It looks damp, but it is not an exterior wall, and the paint is flaking off. We patched up some part of the walls and painted them the same and these patches are not showing, only in this area.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Tom
