I
began on the third and final coat of paint to the lower walls of the
spare room. Overnight it dried and looked fairly good. As you can
see, the two colors are similar enough to look suited yet different
enough for show. However, I had a problem...
...The
green paint that had been under the layers of ghastly wallpaper was
still flaking off. Nothing seems to stop it from peeling. I have
washed, sanded, vacced, picked, over-painted the darn stuff several
times but still have THIS -
-
greeting me. Meanwhile, it appears that our new next door neighbors
do not like gardening or birds - as the council have began to strip
their back yard. Gone are all birdware and the shed and here go the
plants...
While
the council were busy razing the yard next door, I was busy
completing the third coat of paint in the spare room. As November
draws to a close, the top coat is finished - however, the painting is
not, as I still have multiple patches to attend to where the green
stuff is peeling off.
In
this last shot, you can see how the walls look colorwise - although I
still have to re-sand/fix somehow/repaint the patches. I am thinking
there may be some sort of glue or clear nail varnish perhaps that
might seal the edges...
