Painting over kitchen paint

[jimbo84uk]

Hi All,

I would like to paint over the paint in my kitchen. It's some sort of 'waterproof' kitchen paint that you can't seem to paint over easily (when I tried the paint just sort of separates into gloops/blobs!). I actually removed the existing paint from one of the walls with a heat gun - it all came off in a big sheet like it was a big sheet of plastic.

I want to just paint on top of the rest of the walls. Anything I can use as an undercoat to avoid having to sand down or remove the paint?

Thanks,

J

Might be kitchen paint or some twerp has mixed PVA in the paint, if you can get it off do so! Otherwise try a primer paint for difficult surfaces like Zinsser Bulls Eye 123.

PS that's assuming you have washed down with sugar soap to remove any grease deposits.

Which paint were you trying to apply over the existing paint?

If the walls are very greasy (as suggested by footprints) then I would expect the paint to act in the way that you describe.
