    Hi,

    Looking for a bit of advice

    I've used Dulux Primer undercoat for interior wood as an undercoat for a set of wooden doors of a hot press but the paint flakes away in certain sections

    I've attached a pic

    Any advise on what I should do or use??

    Any help would be great!

    Sand it down 1st.

    I would say that's varnished.

    Thanks!

    Should I sand the whole thing down again with a sander or just the affected areas?

    all of it

    Should I go at it with the belt sander I have here or just give it a light sanding by hand?

    a belt sander is very extreme but you will have to get all the paint off or it will peel again
