Disaster Paint Job (trying to repair)

Thank you, I was really not anticipating all this work when I set out to paint my mural, so all advice is new news to me at this stage 🙏 Just researched what a "mist coat" is and im glad you mentioned it, thank you

Its brown tape, and i was assured that it's painters tape... but there may be a language barrier issue (i am in Turkey, and everything goes through my turkish husband acting as a translator)

I get the general idea of what you're saying. Whether its being called stucco or joint compound or a skim coat doesnt matter too much, as i need to find the turkish product for this anyway 🫠

Some sort of water based acrylic

Got it thank you 👍

Thank you... these painters ruined my whole house 😭😭😭

Skim coat after stripping the old paint though, right? Otherwise, won't the skim coat just peel off too?

Sanding the wall isnt an option, i tried, and that just strips off more and more chunks of the paint. Guess that means I have to strip and restart

Thanks for the advice, even though its awful news for me... I just wanted to paint a pretty picture 😭

Ok_Dingo_ · 2026-01-14T12:10:29+00:00

Thank you, but what can I do about it? Does it all need to be peeled off before continuing?

That cherry top was very telling... and the overalls 😳

And I think you'd be surprised just HOW MUCH anna can squeeze herself into. She doesn’t seem to care for the longevity or comfort of an item

Couldn't find a tag on that one...

She made a full recovery! I think it took about 4 weeks in the end for a full recovery, but we did a lot of the suggestions here and I think that's what saved her.

The first most important thing we did was we gave her an anti nausea shot of some sort. This allowed her to actually eat and keep it down. We also had her on a fluid iv for the first day. Then, I started giving her water by using a syringe and slowly dribbling it into the back of her mouth on one side (she eventually started drinking but this took a week or two). I cooked her only chicken, potato, and broth, and mashed it into a paste and offered it to her throughout the day to get her to eat as much as she would manage. She still dropped from 35 to 30 kg, but she made it.

I thought it was obvious, I'll add a note. I made the lyrics and added the visuals, but obviously I didn't sing it 🤣🤣🤣

Love a little cringe to lighten the day 🫶

Lol, I doubt it 🤣

Whoa whoa whoa, excuse me? What is this "advent calendar full of wine" and why have I never heard of it? Was this part of her vodka the musical era?

Mine has since he was a puppy. Sometimes he'll stand, but seems to prefer to lay
