It maybe because of the type of paint you have used has reacted to the heat.

Hi how should I paint these panels ? Do I need to pva them before applying emulsion ?
Question by: Martyn on 25 Jul 2022 11:07:00
We say it would be best to skim the board with plaster as the board can have imperfections as it is an insulation material.
A skim of plaster and then standard emulsion paint should be suitable.
