@kathrynannebrown: What have I done wrong? I took off old wallpaper, sanded the wall and put PVA solution. First coat of paint fine 2nd coat of paint it’s bubbled and peeling #help #decorating #painting #homerenovation #viral
the paint is supposed to connect to the wall via bluetooth.. you forgot to pair them

why am I watching this :
People in the comments are clueless. You should have used Zinsser gardz once you sanded the wall back to seal any of the old residue. sanding alone is not enough.
What you need to do now is scrape it back. Apply zinnser gardz and let it fully dry, overnight ideally. Then you can apply the topcoat. No need to dilute etc. obviously fill and sand before the top coat if you're going to bother.
goodluck.

it's the pva. never use it. you should always apply the cheapest matt white paint to exposed plaster first and then use your colours over the matt white

too many of these tik tok diy disasters, and too many (tik tok expert painters) giving bad advice you need to speak with a decorator who has at least 25 yrs plus experience of dealing with theses issues

23yrs been a decorator. Wash wall down with warm water and make sure you scrape all the glue and paste off, let it dry fully and give it a sand with course sandpaper next get some white Matt emulsion water it down abit about 75% paint to 25% water and paint the wall. Once dry give it a quick flick over with some medium sandpaper, dust off then two coats of your colour you want. 🤘

All you did wrong after removing wallpaper wash the wall with sugar soap which removes the old paste, that is why this has happened no need for any sealer sugar soap is cheap just mix with warm water use sponge do it 2 times to make sure
