Frequently asked questions on products

Is there a bubble-like bumps on your wall?

What is it?
These bubble-like appearances are caused by blistering, which happens when certain areas lose adhesion, forcing the paint film to lift from the surface.

Possible Causes:

•       Due to  trapped moisture or gases in paint film (more likely in enamels)

•       Painting under direct sunlight or on surfaces that are too warm. This is especially true if the coating you’re using is dark in colour and solvent-based.

•       Applying an oil-based finish on a wet or moist surface.

•       Exposing water-based finishes to dew, high humidity or rain immediately after the paint has dried. This becomes a greater issue if the surface has not been properly prepared at first, or if the quality of paint is poor.

Solutions:

•       Scrape and sand blisters till they go away and then repaint it.

•       Remove sources of moisture. Repair loose caulk and install vents and exhaust fans wherever possible.

•       Prime and paint the wall with a high quality water-based exterior paint.
