Applied a decent coat of their Perma-White Mould & Mildew-Proof. Worked a treat. Not cheap though :!

	Plastidip it

	Zinsser do a product called 'Peel stop' specifically for what you're after. All their products are second to none.
Ben G	posted on 7th Mar 16 at 11:56
	Righto, cheers oliver :thumbs: not sure what to seal the flaky parts with though. Any idea's? I've heard pva mentioned.

It's an artex ceiling so won't be noticeable at all. [Edited on 06-03-2016 by Ben G] Again the issue is what's underneath or lack of, it will continue doing this as it's never been prepared properly. It might last longer but it'll continue to flake. That emulsion would be perfect for the job though

I think it has something to do with using oil based paint. Water based means it's not as smooth or shiny but years down the line isn't still white.
MarkM	posted on 6th Mar 16 at 18:35
	Same here too. Oliver Cromwell will a single coat suffice?
Ian	posted on 6th Mar 16 at 16:38
	I too need to do this job the same reason. Mine is a bit older but same issue.

	Soft sheen is exactly that as well, the shine is barely noticeable
Ojc	posted on 6th Mar 16 at 16:31
	Nothing to do with the Matt emulsion, well it won't help but someone hasn't mist coated and it's lifted with the moisture. Go to Crown, use anything with a sheen. Dulux emulsion is getting progressively worse.

	Hadn't painted the bathroom ceiling ever (we moved in almost 6 years ago!) until last week. Previous owner thought he'd paint in a beige colour to match the tiles, but I prefer white ceilings, so I went over it with standard dulux brilliant white emulsion. Directly above the shower it has decided to peel off, which I assume is due to moisture and steam, so I need a more specialised paint. Problem is, B&Q only seem to stock dulux bathroom paint in a soft sheen colour. I don't want a shiny ceiling, so can anyone recommend a decent matt finish paint for bathrooms?
