Bay window stains

 From earlier on this year we had a leak from the gutter which we got repaired as soon as possible, but the water was leaking directly over the bay window and in turn was leaking up through the moulded seam and leaked into the roof and stained the sealing of it. 

I let it dry out and painted a few times with bright white emulsion, but the stain kept returning, so I felt it was time to seal it for good 

From Toolstation 

So after the 1st coat and 2 hrs do dry, I can confirm the stain seems to have been covered, and no visible sign has returned fingers crossed 

The paint says it can be painted over with any paint, we will see when i get some more emulsion 

Painting the walls

 While the scaffolding is still up I decided it's an idea to get the front wall painted around the top window and area I won't be able to do while on a ladder, so while it stopped raining it was time to give it a coat of magnolia paint.

I went and got a tub of exterior masonry paint and brushes, got out a wire brush to clean off the loose paint and dirt and started to paint the upper wall, it looks better with the cracks in the cement and the older paint covered over.

You can't see it so well in the picture from last night, but it's looking a lot better this morning in a normal light, ill try and take one if it stops raining
