Hi all,
Just bared all walls in house to brick (as plaster was blown everywhere) and dot and dabbed soundboard to them.
I'll be skrim taping the weekend and prob by next week should be ready to start skimming.
Am new to 'plastering' but have just tried a fireplace and it turned out ok so think the technique is ok, but the reason for posting is that I want to guage peoples opinions on what to use.
Most plasterers tend to use Multifinsh, but would I be better with board finish bearing in mind I have boarded? Can you please give reasons for answer so I know the difference?
I have bought a bag of both for testing purposes so will find out in due course, but it would be nice for comments from you guys/gals as you have a lot of experience. Would one be more forgiving bearing in mind I'm learning?
Can't really pay a pro before it gets recommended as low on funds so will have to just learn quick.
Thanks in advance.
