My notes say use the 10 min tape test. IF sound then wash with sugar soap then score heavily every 50mm to aid adhesion. Alternatvily (I know spelling) remove the paint altogether. mechanical method not strippers. Hey guys I am new to tiling done a bit for my family and figured that I could make money as I have done a good job for myslf and family, So I have done a course at the NETT in Jan which was a good course. I will post answers to other peoples thread once I have more experience and confidence. I was a bit annoyed though that answered my question  But hey I m over it and look forward to more communacation with all u fellow tilers  cheers Out of interest are my notes correct? | ||||||||||

Not wanting to contradict what NETT say so, yes! It is also what I learned on my course and that wasn't NETT. Grumpy | ||

Stick a good quality masking/sticky tape firmly to the paint surface, leave 10 mins and then rip it off quickly. If paint comes off with tape then you can't tile onto it as yer tiles will fall off! Grumpy | ||
