We have some bare (skimmed) plaster in our new wet room, what should
one use for a first coat? I.e. can it be thinned 'ordinary' emulsion

(where it worked well), can we use that?


any of those 3, or a water coat followed by full strength emulsion works better.

That also shows how to mouldproof it.
