I have painted the walls in my bathroom & shower as it was a new house. I would like to know if I can now tile over this paint (in shower and around bath)or does it need to be removed first. icon_biggrin.gif

You can tile over the paint if it just emulsion, if it is oil based eggshell or gloss you may have to use something called unibond, paint this on then let it dry and tile as normal, any loose paint you will have to remove hope this helps. icon_smile.gif
