The paint is peeling off the wall around our toilet cistern.

I can only guess that it is due to the area being cool and condensation
forming.

What is the solution, better paint? Some sort of process before painting?

TIA,
Rick

water due to splash or condensation eventually exhausts the glue
component in the paint. A little more glue in the paint might help,
but too much causes problems. The other probably better option
would be a more waterproof paint than emulsion, such as oil based
eggshell.

It's a feature of Forte Agent - Stuart is threading on Subject, not
References.

I am indeed ..(can't see the alternative "references" tho"..only
"lines") but I have always done it that way as I find it makes more
sense to follow threads .However more and more recently I have been
finding replies shown elsewhere than in the original thread ...maybe
it's with people using Google etc to post replies ....I have to say I
find that annoying .

I believe it's a feature that Forte Agent lacks.
