Damp/Mildew Walls
I decorated my bedroom 2 years ago. The condition of the room is excellent apart from one corner of the room which has gone black on the wallpaper due to damp.
I did treat the walls to a painted on damp proof before I papered but it has just started to go black.
Is there anything on the market which I can paint onto wallpaper to stop it getting worse. I don't want to just repaint that area as I know it wont help.
I need something to hide the black mildew as well as treat it (even if it only last another year)
