I want to reskim a wall in my bathroom which is painted in the satin-finish paint. I'm wondering if I can get away without pva'ing the wall before skimming, as the satin paint seems to have some waterproofing properties, thereby preventing absorption of water/drying out of the skim. I've pva'd satin walls before skimming in the past, 'just in case', but as it takes ages to absorb/dry, I'm wondering if its worth it.
Also, I'm about to skim over internal render. Do I need to pva this before skimming?
Any help would be much appeciated.
