Hello,
I am looking for some suggestions. I closed up the overdoor windows with pb plank.
I want to skim to bring everything together, (plasterboard,studding, etc) but I am worried for future cracks.. what's the best way to go about plastering over the timber battens(that are painted with gloss) and the plasterboard? Prefill gaps, use scrim tape on the battens, use mesh all over, blue grit? How would you go about it?
Would you knock off old skim beforehand or go ahead with bonding coat?
Any advice is appreciated.
