I have today patched up an area of blown plaster and the top coat (multi finish) started to bubble up in a few areas. Can anyone tell me why this is happening?
The area is approx 1m square, and repaired as follows:-
- Brickwork primed with PVA 1:3 a few days ago.
- Last night heating in kitchen turned off.
- Brickwork PVA'd 3:1, 1st coat of bonding (about 8mm thick), surface scored.
- 2.5-3 hrs later, 2nd coat of bonding (about 8-10mm thick), surface scored again.
- 2.5-3 hrs later, multi finish (3mm thick).
The bubbling wasn't confined to just one area but appeared at random (a total of about 10-12). The only way I could seem to get around it was to score through the bubbling with a stanley blade.
I've got to do another area tomorrow of about 3-4m square and obviously want to avoid this happening again.
Any help/advice appreciated. Thanks.
