Hi all. I painted the background on my "drywall" project & the paint curled up in a few areas. I'm assuming the first coat wasnt completely dry.
MY question, What's the least messy way to clean it up & redo it?

It had just been painted with house paint & I followed Si's advise (no primer). I know for a fact it was my fault, doing a thick coat on an area that wasnt totally dry...or was it?

Felix...if it was latex house paint...you would have had to let it dry completely!!!!! 1Shot is oil based and will not stick to anything that contains water!
As Rick said...srape and sand, then repaint....but make sure it is dry FIRST!

No Si, the house paint was dry. I meant the first coat of oil paint wasnt dry. I was gonna check it out today but it was raining. Thanks again!
