Things don’t always go to plan….
Especially working on old substrates !
So….this door was re-furnished a few weeks ago and after a message from the client that some blisters had appeared - back I went to investigate.
After opening up the blisters I was greeted with sap….the door - despite being an original, had heated up and the sap from the knots had pushed through. Now none of these were visible after sanding and the door coatings were solid…but due to the colour change, the door is now getting warmer than before - causing the sap to bleed through.
The fix 🤞🏻 - Sanded back to bare, sealed with Zinsser UK BIN on the effected areas…re-primed, filled, sanded & re-finished
Impossible to predict, but it’s the response that matters & that’s the reality of the job, it’s not always plain sailing
