Bonding or Easi-Fill??

[mikegm]

I have been asked to re-skim a small attic room, there are a couple of "smallish/medium" holes showing the lathes beneath, I was going to use Bonding plaster for these prior to multi-finish, but none found in B&Q or Wickes. Could I use Easi-Fill for these holes. Thanks.

how big are the holes, if the holes are small, easifill can be applied as can most fillers. But wickes do sell thistle bonding, might be worth a trip to a builder merchant.

Thistle Bonding for me too. Give the area a wet down with a brush,, PVA all over, especially around the edges of the old plaster, then fill the patch out flush. Bringing it out flush in 2 coats is the best way.
