Newly painted door problem
Several of our internal doors and the surrounding woodwork were painted last
month. One door makes a loud crack as it is opened, sounds like the paint is sticking a bit although it is not bad enough to mark the paint. Can I put something on the woodwork to stop this happening but won't mark the paint? Thanks |
