Just checking - one part PVA to three parts water? Peeled paint looks like it was vinyl, and there is a white powder when you touch the newly exposed bare plaster.

    If you get flakey emulsion it's either moister so you air bricks vents and extractor. Also can be efflerlurance think that's it spelt it salts comeing out of the plaster you'll see a white powder in both the above cases scrap surfaces down and dust off wash down and use alkaline resisting primer its oil based and holds back either the flake or the salt deposited used this for years once sealed left to dry then re emulsion..

      @@spinx1200 I'm really sorry for not having seen your reply earlier and thank you for answering my question. I've not done any PVA as it had already been painted before and the surface was not a porous plaster. So I assumed primer should seal it enough. What I have bought now is STOP PEAL from Zinsser and I'm going to sand all the flakes off first, then paint with Stop Peal, let it dry for 24 hrs, then use filler, sand it smooth, paint with Stop peal again and then paint with a different brand paint perhaps. Do you reckon this will work?

If youre gonna use fillers on your job I suggest fine.m surface fillers as itll be easier to sand and blend into old paint edges.

      Hi Sako. Not really sure what would be the best thing as it's very porous. Could you consider having it skimmed? You could then apply plenty of sealant to prevent water seeping in. Lots of ventilation in the room is key though, do you have an extractor fan and windows in your bathroom...?

    wait what?? PVA????? no dude no not in a wet area like a bathroom. PVA remains water soluble its entire life so as soon as the water vapour form your shower makes its way through the tiny holes in the paint surface (which of course it will) then the wood glue will just go back to being a wet mush and youll have to re do the whole lot.... this is terrible advice.
    my advice, use watered down SBR bond or zinnser peel stop or just pay someone that actually knows what theyre doing!
