I'm going to give the hallway of my Victorian terrace a bit of a refresh - mainly just a fresh coat of paint. There are lots of imperfections in the wall and its obvious that there have been attempts at repairs in the past which now aren't necessarily in the best condition. This is my first attempt at decorating so I'm not going to try and repair everything (in reality it would probably be better to strip some of the plaster off these walls altogether and start afresh, but thats for the long term).
A wall had a small bit of plaster that was loose which I have now removed - it just wasn't adhered to the wall. Its a couple of mms thick and there looks to be a smooth plastboard type material underneath.
What product/method would be best to skim over this small section? My main concern is that if the wider plaster isn't well adhered either - but hasn't actually come away like this section - then I could end up with a damaging or pulling away a larger area (i.e if the 'weight' of the filler pulls more away at the edges).
The simpler the better would be great!
