My fresh paint is cracking! Help!

last modified: 6 years ago

I recently decided to redo my living room which had very old lead paint on the wall. I removed everything and plastered only the walls with compound. Primed with encapsulating lead primer and then used SW primer paint in one for two coats. I started to notice the micro cracks in areas of my walls and ceiling. Can a primer make paint crack like this?? I tried to paint over it ,no luck, sanding to a smooth surface then repaint, no luck.... Starting to lose sleep overthis
Edit: Can I skim coat over the spider webbing instead of sanding it down? Trying to find an efficient solution. Thanks!
