How so? to get it level you just tap it with a hammer in places till it
becomes level using a Spirit level.
Battons are adding to the work load.

So what if, on the second sheet you have a bulge in the wall - not uncommon.
If you level it one side, you can't level the other. Third sheet becomes
worse.

Good point! Some brick work can be inches off in places whcih could
never be filled with just a big dollop. You'd need some plaster
screeds every 600mm then the adhesive goes onto that. Still less work
than all that drilling and plugging etc.


I'd use a 2 x 1 batten the length of the area to be boarded to check for
high spots. You could then do the bit with the biggest bulge first and
line everything else up to that.
