Cracking paint

[Nicholas Lea]

Hi,

So I admit I have been an impatient fool!

Painting our downstairs toilet and instead of waiting the correct amount of time between coats I painted an additional coat over the first coat that wasn't quite dry. This has resulted in cracking.

What would the best course of action be? Will using Polycell base coat remedy this or is more drastic action required?

Thanks.

Are we talking emulsion on the walls or woodwork ?

Walls perhaps?

If emulsion, you may be able to wash or scrape the paint off if it hasn't hardened fully.

Some areas may be filled with a filler and sanded.

Pictures would be handy to assess the extent of the situation.
