Hi all, not been here in awhile but i have a major problem with some painting. I have three days off work,yesterday,today and tomorrow. I decided as a brithday treat to myself that i would do some painting in the sitting room.
now due to ill health,work,other projects etc the room has not been painted in 5 years add in the fact that we are both smokers and have an open fire and you can imagine the state of the place.
i have finished the 6th coat of white emulsion on the ceiling and when it dried i can still see some stains coming through. i am using B&Q "value" emulsion and its taken 10 ltrs so far.
I am really behind at this stage and really fed up. do i just keep going at it or would a different brand make a differance? can anyone recommend one? the closest shed is a woodies but there are lots of indie paint shops around. i just don't fancy trying to explain why i did not re paint for 5 years
