Just boxed up and plyed the bottom inside of an ex-airing-cupboard for a friend.
She insisted doing the ply before plastering the back wall (half exposed bricks + half old plaster).
Now she is saying she doesn't want the plywood under the plaster (plywood is up to the wall which is to be plastered).
She is saying to plaster the wall... then use a multi-tool to cut the plywood down so it is not under the plaster
She says the plaster will affect the plywood and may cause the plywood to need replacing in the future - the plywood has had 2 coats of Danish oil.
I am thinking just duck tape the plywood around the edge where it meets the wall... then cut the excess duck tape off up to the newly laid plaster after it has set so the duck tape is in between the plywood and new plaster so there is no contact between plywood and plaster.
But a part of me thinks this is all unnecessary and I should just plaster from the plywood.
What do you guys think?
Thanks.
