Hello :-)

Just had hardwall and then skim done in a little bedroom - any idea how long it takes to dry? We think that the hardwall was almost 20mm in places, due to old bricks jutting out - in an old Victorian house. It's all gone pale (a week later) but of course, we can't see what's happening under the skim.
No radiator in the room yet, so no heat, just opened the window wide for most of the day (added bonus, getting rid of the eggy smell!). Wondering how long it will be before I can start decorating with the mist coat & put on the new skirting & architrave.

Any advice be fab, cheers!
 
When it's pale pink I paint. Never had a problem.
