We have a problem with rising damp in MIL's bungalow. We have removed quite a lot of plaster, and the aim is to deal with the source of the damp, and then plaster or render the wall.
This will take some time, and in the meantime we want to do some temporary decoration to make the room more pleasant.
What I'd like to know is whether it's okay to paint the exposed brickwork, or whether this will cause problems with the plastering/rendering when we come to do it later?
Any particular paint we should use?
