"The plasterboard is sucking it in. Try apply a coat of PVA and after carry on with the paint it will work"
Answered on 15th Jan 2021 - Member since May 2020 - report"Are you letting it dry enough between coats.
If it continues let the wall dry.
Then PVA it let it dry coat it again should be fine."
"What paint are you using, it cold be that if paper was in before or try stain block then give it another coat or 2 hope that helps"
