We are renovating an old house. Have had some new plaster, which has now been painted and painted old plaster which has been stripped of paper. In some places the paint has crazed and it seems to be in places where there has been paper and therefore paste on the walls before. I think there may have been some reaction to the wallpaper paste.
Any advice.

You really need to remove the crazed paint then wash the wall well to remove the old paste. Then seal the wall using a PVA adhesive dilluted around 25% PVA to 75% water.
