just decorated our eldests bedroom, since then (3 weeks) there can be a strange smell in the room, it seems to be coming from the painted walls! other times it's not so strong, looked for any other sources including something dead in the loft. but cant find a thing. Only in one room!
could paint cause this?
What sort of paint originally on the walls? If it was Farrow and Ball casein bound distemper, then the vinyl emulsion you put on top could have a) moistened it; b) sealed it in. Result - smelly cheese wall.
(Obviously, you could get the same effect if it was just very old milk and limewash on the walls, rather than expensive F&B)
Hi, the walls were papered for years, stripped then painted
Christ! They don't still make that do they? That really is stone-age technology for the sake of it
then the vinyl emulsion you put on top could
No doubt F&B milk paint with cows' blood would be a money spinner
