« back to Interior Home Improvement forum

DoninRomeo home \| projects \| blog 1 post in 3456 days 09-12-2011 02:27 PM	I have replaired plaster in a 50s house with much success, but in one bedroom my repair work starts peeling with a month after finishing it. I am using standart wall joint compounds. Can someone recommend a different compound that would prevent this peeling?
