Lining Paper

[Roberta]

I have papered a room with lining paper and filled the joints with flexible filler. Applied two coats of paint and all seemed well. Now however a month later I can see the seams darker than the paint. What can I do

Chances are that you will now always see the joins in the paper. You should have just put up the paper with butted joints then given it a couple of coats of paint. If the paper is butted well then the paint would have filled the slight gap. There shouldn't be any need to use a filler.

Have to admit the filler was a surprise to me too, but I'm also surprised a couple of coats of quality paint didn't cover all below anyway. Can only suggest trying a further couple of coats. Preferable with a paint that boasts of it's covering ability on the tin.
