Leveling up plaster
I repaired some channels in a wall with one coat plaster yesterday but
some of it needs another couple of mm on to get rid of a slight depression. Do I wait for the first lot to dry or can I just add a little more on top of the damp first layer? -- Frank (Beware of spam trap - remove the negative) |

No you can do it while it is damp - in fact it will be easier. -- Cheers, John. /================================================== ===============\ | Internode Ltd - http://www.internode.co.uk | |-----------------------------------------------------------------| | John Rumm - john(at)internode(dot)co(dot)uk | \================================================= ================/ |
