Hi, my kitchen walls have started to peel. Not sure if its the old house owners have used normal paint or not sealed the plaster before painting.
My questions are :-
- I have areas that i have used a stripper blade on to remove the paint and areas that it seems are far harder to remove. Whats the best and easiest way of removing this old paint. will a heat gun remove it? paint stripper chemicals?
- When its all removed i will have left , bare plaster. What sort of paint do i need to use to sort this out?
I've been told by a local DIY shop to use contract matt paint and use 2 coats. and no need for kitchen paint.
I've read about putting PVA mixed on the first few coats so starting to get confused on how i should proceed.
I'm happy for white or magnolia colour just don't want to do the job and find it pealing in a years time again.
Any advise would be appreciated.
Regards
