    Looking at this today. A friends house. Internal doors were painted approx 2 yrs ago ( satinwood white ) and this problem started and gradually worsened. Seemsbe at a level for a while now with no apparent worsening. Am going to repaint so just looking for any recommendations before I start; a stain block perhaps ? is it necessary to sand ? Any solid advice appreciated
