Hi,

Recently had the bedrooms reskimmed a few weeks ago. Started applying a mist coat, and noticed a patch on one of the walls that has a cracked eggshell type pattern that is now visible (not noticeable before). The lines aren't actually cracks as the paint is raised on the visible lines.

I had tried sanding it back down and wiping the area with a damp cloth, and reapplying the mist coat in case anything like PVA had accidentally gotten on the wall after it was plastered, but it made no difference (that was when the picture attached was taken). Haven't had any issues with the skim anywhere else.

Any advice to resolve would be great.

It looks like it dried too quickly and cracked while it shrank. My guess is it went up in the really hot weather.
