my electritian has left me with a few holes in my kitchen, all normal just had the sockets moved to accomodate new kitchen fit. I am curious as to how to plaster over the new wiring and the old socket boxes what do I do if the job isn't too complicated?

fist ,carefully apply diluted pva to the chases( dont want the electric tripping out) then apply a coat of carlite bonding, removing exess plaster from surrounding area and allow to set (4-12hrs ish). next apply 2 finishing coats of thistle multi finish allowing 10mins or so between coats.allways remove old back boxes as older ones can rust and this will show through the plaster and paint.
