Skimmed ceiling - another coat?
I have covered a bathroom ceiling which had been artexed. The covering
was successful but I have a fair number of uneven bumps. Fatigue set in before I could rectify. I also had a problem with cramp in my wrist which pulled my thumb across my palm so I could not continue. What to do now? Is it worth giving another thin skim over the surface? Will I need to prime the old plaster or just apply straight on - there is more or less a dried out surface now? Or should I wait for it dry completely and do the dreaded sanding off of the bumpy areas? Thanks in advance. km |

Enough undulations to make it worth me asking for advice. km |
