hi guys...does a new skimmed living room require any further preperation before painting it...?.....ive gone over it with a fine paper sander just to smooth it down...
 
It shouldn't need smoothing down - it usually needs roughing up!

Just dilute first coat by 20%.
 
ta mate...i just went over with an electric sander, just to smooth some towel marks, nibbles etc...
