Paint on walls
I have been painting freshly plastered walls as I usually would, some of the plaster has gone over existing plaster. Where this has happened there is a clear line and the paint has settled on the fresh plaster but not where the plaster went over the existing plaster. The same has occurred on the opposite side of the wall. I did a whitewash first and a large part of the room is fine. Any ideas?

New plaster and old plaster will react differently to new paint. Aslong as it has had its proper sealer coats then further coats should blend it in
