Peeling Paint Coating

Definition:
Peeling paint coating is defined as the loss of adhesion when the topcoat is applied to multiple older paint layers.

 

Causes:
Use of emulsion paint on top of older layers of emulsion paint can cause a paint coating to peel from the surface of a skim coat because of loss of adhesion.

 

Solutions:
• Scrape all paint layers until the base of the wall using a putty knife.
• If needed, use a liquid paint remover. When using liquid paint remover, make sure to use long- sleeved clothing and protective gloves to protect arms and hands.
• Apply Mowilex Undercoat Tembok on the surface of the skim coat and let it dry completely.
• Use Mowilex Interior atau Exterior paints for best final results.
