Hi,
We've just had the ceiling re plastered in the box room - new plasterboard etc. All the walls have been skimmed, also.
I was told it would be ready to paint in 3 or so days but from what I have read this could be much longer.
The skim was thin but I am guessing the ceiling was a thicker layer....?
1) What time should I give this before I set about decorating?
2) B&Q fella told me 2 coats of matt emulsion watered down, followed by a normal coat of the same emulsion, then I'm good to go with chosen colour?
If anyone could answer my questions above I would be really grateful.
Many thanks in advance
