You could try using a stabalising primer though I think this would have to be sprayed as brushing will knock off chips. Why not try in a small area.

Once treated use Dulux Trade Mouldshield, ( eggshell) it really does what it says on the tin, I have used it a few times on this sort of problem and it really does work.

Any ideas? Would like to know myself. Zampa?

Thats correct, only problem is Butinox 3 has very ltd colours. Jotun also make Demidekk Optimal, this has an even better life expectancy than Butinox, is slightly more expensive, about £60 for 3ltrs, but is avaliable in a much wider range of colours. Requires priming with 'Visor', both...

Thank you, thought so.

Which is the proffessional way of cutting in? Do I paint all skirtings first then cut in with emulsion or vice versa. Cracking site by the way.
