Oily Substance On Bathroom Walls

A few years ago we used kilz primer and painted two of the walls in the bathroom.

Oily substance on bathroom walls.

Over the past few years i have found a number of oily yellowish drips in all areas of our home. You need to strip the wall paper strip the walls and start over from bare walls. It would be alot of work to remove it. We thought at first it was something from the kids spilled something and maybe didn t clean it up right maybe spilled some kind of candy or our 6 year old niece that visits and doing something.

In the bathroom i ve noticed that on certain surfaces like the part of the sink that is connected to the wall has some yellow substance in it. The drips are always on paint. The bathroom is up against the wall to the outside of the house. Started noticing this same thing so we never painted the other walls.

They appear on external and internal walls. We have the wallpaper looking wallboard stuff. I d say it s from condensation and the odd collection of goop is from the wall never being completely washed or painted for who knows how long.

What is happening in your bathroom is a common paint problem called surfactant leaching the following is from the paint quality institute. It didn t build up it more or less pooled.

It looks like water has condensed on the wall but despite repeated cleaning the substance still appears brown and sticky. I have an interior bedroom wall that somehow produces a brown sticky substance that runs down the wall. That old of a home would have oil based paint and a varnish on the walls. Having just cut a hole through the dry wall i can confirm that there are no leaks from the.

Then pooled on top of the toilet paper holder. Is it something that is leaching out of the paint. The ceiling seemed unaffected. Several weeks ago the walls in the bathroom began to bleed a mysterious sticky substance some sort of oil.
