I have just made a blunder - can anyone please help with advice?
My internal doors, frames and skirtings are all painted with an oil based eggshell paint. They'd taken a few knocks and scrapes so the other day I gave the damage a quick rub with sandpaper and then dabbed with oil based primer.
This morning I repainted two doors, frames and skirtings with what I THOUGHT was the eggshell paint, but I'd picked up the wrong can and have accidentally used a water based paint! Not emulsion but a water based topcoat.
I didn't realise till I came to wash out the brushes.
Is the paint going to chip off?
What can I do now to put this right? Does everything have to be sanded, or sugar-soaped? OR can I just paint over with the oil based eggshell?
