Wow.. this keeps cropping up.

The consensus seems to be that using Dulux Trade Supermatt (following the
directions on the tin) is the best option but you need to ensure that the
plaster is full dry first.

I've got some new internal walls in the house - usual wood frame with
plasterboard.
They are going to be skim coated by a plasterer next week.

What's the best way to seal them before painting (so it doesn't soak up
several
layers of paint) or should I just slap on a few coats of cheap white
emulsion first?
Someone recommended mixing some PVA glue with white emulsion and doing
one coat of that first....comments? If so, what proportions of
glue/paint/water?

Cheers
