Thickness of finishing plaster
Posted: Sun Aug 09, 2009 8:07 pm
Hi Guys, I was puttiong some finishing plaster on top of old bonding
plaster. Previous guy had tiles straight on top of bondiong, tiles came off very easy
Now the wall is as rough as can be so I used a thick coat of finishing plaster but then noticed that you were only suppose to use it as a skim
Whats wrong with using a thicker coat anyway (5 - 10 mm). This was 2 weeks ago and it seems fairly firm
Also, I was plastering another wall and the whole bucket went off literally in 15 mins (different bag). Bugger to clear out of the bucket and scrape off the walls. Why did this happen? Only bought the bag a week before
