Guessing here - but the method you are using to check for earthing by body
voltage might simply be that the painted wall has greater inductance
capacitance than you so the electrons will flow to the greater pool of electrons
in the painted surface, the trick is to drain the wall to your separate
yard earth rod and check the wall with your voltage meter again you might
find an even lower bv reading ??
