I am only too aware about the perils of painting over old gloss without sanding down as it makes the new layer peel off easily.
However, I keep hearing painters moan about this situation and they blame it on Once one coat gloss being used, or even no undercoat.
Surely the only reason for this is that the old paint has not been rubbed down properly first.
Can someone confirm this for me, as I have cheapo job to do which will involve sanding and priming and undercoating any bare bits, but probably not undercoat all over as the budget simply does not allow for it. The old paint is in quite good nick, and I know it was done well.
I don't think Once will be used, there is an almost new large tin of non drip gloss I am expected to use.
