Hello this wall faces the prevailing weather conditions and has always been a problem to me .I last painted it with Sandtex two years ago and the paint is already showing signs of peeling. Anyway I have spent a day trying to remove as much loose paint and not so loose paint ( in fact it took...

i am using Zinsser Peel stop

Hi I have wall which I want to line prior to applying emulsion to it but after removing the existing pare which actually came off quite easily, I noticed the top layer of existing emulsion peels off quite easily in certain areas, so I as wondering about covering it with an appropriate primer...
