If I painted over glossy white paint with the paint color flat color and flake easily. How do I close it? The walls were already painted white with a semi or high gloss paint, and I did not prime it. I then painted in bright white paint with a flat enamel paint and now I have trouble keeping the paint on the walls. I even did two coats of enamel paint flat. Is there some sort of coating I can use to ensure that the paint does not continue to compensate for chip?
you have to do a better job of preparation. sand lightly to dull walls, wall washing with TSP and water, the first, painting
What you need to do is paint wallpaper paste on the wall for the painting can take her. It works!
Yes, you need light sanding with orbital sander works best, or use a product called "liquid sander /" deglosser, then put a good primer on the wall as Kilzer. then paint as usual, the primer tinted to the color of your wall for cover coat of a top half or three quarters lambswool inch nap cover
If the paint is not staying on the shiny surface, there is nothing you can put on top that will help them to stay. Several layers of anything likely to peel worse. The problem is the connection, or lack thereof, between the bright and flat. You can not put something extra that will change that. You need to remove the painting flat, most anyway. Sand off or try to rub it with TSP. If this is not very strongly that it will not take much cleaning.
oh oh, start sanding by hand or orbital sander, it would have been broken at the beginning
