Cheers for your help

You can see them face on, all over the place I did paint the whole wall out so no concern with colour matching old/new paint. I read a thread elsewhere that sometimes the make up of the caulk can make it kind of bleed thru and appear darker. Someone has suggested zinnser bullseye 123 on another...

Hi. I have used some caulk to cover/fix some imperfections in a light blown vinyl wallpaper. Kids knocking/scuffs etc on stairs..I have recoated with emulsion but I can see patches where I have caulked. Maybe I should’ve just used filler...do i need to keep covering with paint or will it need...

Hi all, I am stripping one wall of wood chip in my sons room to put a feature wallpaper up. If I had the time I would take it all off but for now the remaining wood chip is just getting a couple of coats of paint...my question is where the papers meet in the corners I’m concerned it looking...

Justpumps will do. My wife is very efficient at pointing out the smell then somehow making me feel guilty for not sorting it !! Hence why I’m on here cheers
