Hi,
I had a bedroom replastered a week ago. 3 of the walls were dry but one was still slightly damp. I painted regardless having been told by a couple of people that it should be fine (a mistake I now know!). Having applied 3 coats of dulux Matt yesterday, I checked the room today and the damp wall is a different colour shade to the rest of the room (and is still slightly damp). My question is - have I totally ruined that wall or will it just dry out through time? What should I expect to happen? Will I perhaps need to let it dry out and then re-paint? Your thoughts would be appreciated.
Cheers
Simon
