Please can you tell me what the ratio is between paint and water when
painting onto new plaster. I understand it jusat soaks in so there is
no real point in using 'neat' emulsion.

Between 50-25% water. New plaster will suck the water out of the
paint at a very high rate. Also don't paint new plaster too quickly -
allow time for it to dry out first.

How long to leave a skim before painting?
