Default Plasterboarding a room

Cyberdog wrote:
Hi,
I have stripped old addled plaster from all the walls in a bedroom.
The walls are made of very old cinder blocks. I want to use drywall
adhesive to stick the plaster board to the walls. Should I give the
walls a coat of PVA, of can I just stick straight onto the blocks.
Thanks


don't bother with PVA...you can splash the wall with water if it's dusty or
very dry - this will kill some of the suction and allow the DLA to bond
better
