Help needed painting new plaster please...

markthedoc · 20 Apr 2003

Hi

I've just had my walls skimmed.
I am gonna be using a one coat matt emulsion paint.
Can I just paint straight onto the wall or do I need to
apply a primer or sealer first?

Thanks

you need to leave the plaster to dry for at least fourteen days, then seal it with FEB sealer, you can get that from any B&Q and it is cheap i paid £3.99 for a small tube as you mix it with water it lasts a good while.
