permawhite in bathroom

[superdon]

Hi

I have some leftover permawhite that I used in the downstairs kitchen and bathroom.

Just repairing the upstairs bathroom which was previously patched up with standard emulsion. Son of the old paint was peeling and I have removed the peeling and flaking paint which has gone back to bare plaster and want to paint over.

Shall I put a mist coat on the bare areas first? Shall I just use the permawhite out of the can, or water it down?

Want to seal it properly this time and avoid seeing where the old paint peeled.

Cheers

Mistcoat any bare plaster, then apply 2 coats of undiluted Permawhite.

Thanks. Can I mist with watered down permawhite? If that's ok, what ratio?

what does it say on the tin?

Anyway, permawhite does not cover darker areas well...use cheapo emulsion thinned down then 2 coats, as you were told
