Hi, we have just renovated out 25 year old bathroom, we painted the new drywall with a new dark akaline paint, just wondering why every time we now have a shower and after the exhaust fan going we are seeing water streakes on the walls long after the shower??

What type of paint and how many coats?

Chuck

We used oil paint and 2 coats

Did u use a primer? What type of finish for paint (semi-gloss, gloss, flat)?

After water streaks leave, wipe wall with damp cloth. If streaking appears, not enough paint in that area.

If you have water running down your wall you need a bigger, stronger exhaust fan.
