There used to be a provision under the “who’s responsible?” common property memorandum that the owners corp had to pay for painting if the paintwork was damaged in the course of fixing a CP defect.
That seems to have gone – probably because of arguments over how the paint was damaged – by the defect (not covered) or by the repair (covered).
It might be worth calling your strata insurer directly to see what they say.
