New plastering doesn't usually hold paint well. It's why they recommend a primer which helps with bonding with wall. Even then, l'lI recommend painting after a month or two... a very dry wall.
I suppose there are factors that needs to be considered for these peel offs other than the brand of paint. Like someone rightly mentioned in the comments, priming the wall is a necessary factor. Also, we need to understand the soil profile of the location of the building. Perhaps the peeling off is as a result of dumpness. If that is the cause, the brand of paint may not do much since the real cause has not been dealt with. If you need professional advice on the subject matter I will be more than glad to assist. I hope you identify with my views on the subject matter. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing. This is very helpful, Did you find a better brand that works? Any updates on the paint work now with different brand? What brand have you now used on the homes you are building please?
There are a lot other brands that we've tested and works well, examples are Dulux, coral, leyland, Azaar among others. You only have to know the right type of paint to use for every job
You're welcome and thanks for watching as well. Painting is sometimes necessary, depending on the type of paint and the location. Painting helps prevents metal from rusting and sometimes can also serve as a shield to prevent walls from experiencing harsh conditions
So after building a cement block structure and plastering it, it shouldn't be painted? Or we should all build with clay bricks so there's no need for painting? Or what? Please tell us
Nice one. Eii this small paint peel off is what is troubling you?😁 Maybe you're a 'perfectionist', and also there'd be greater peeling off as the days go by. But in the outskirts that you're located, you would encounter lots of 'challenges', so brace yourself
I'm eager to see how a repaint would correct the paint peel off. We also painted our exterior walls. I helped paint. We paid big money to the painter Everything was looking nice until the rains came and now paints been peeling off. Very annoying We used emulsion. Don't know if paint quality can cause this paint peel off, so that more expensive quality paints can't peel off easily? Because you know our Ghanaian/African rains don't play. Let's see how your repaint comes out.
We have used dulux weathershield and even on timber around the garden where it gets blasted with burning sun and lots of water and so far after 4 years it still looks exactly the same… I have seen it advertised at coral paints gh… I looked online at the neuceplus paint you used and I can see it does mention interior and exterior walls as you also said in the video but… that same brand has other products that present more as exterior paints… I am not sure I would ever personally trust a paint can with an interior wall pictured on the can for use on exterior walls that are exposed to the harsh elements… Hope you find something that works, thanks for sharing your experience.
