Used too little water in mist coat

[Azeem]

Sorry if this is the wrong section.


I read somewhere that you should us 10% water for the mist coat, which I have found out is too little water. I have cut into the corners and edges of a room using this ratio. Should I go back and sand those areas back down to the plaster and start again?


Thanks

Nah, should be ok - be a pain in the bum sanding down that lot too.
Just water the rest a bit more and after a couple of coats of top coat will be fine

Yeah, I was hoping to avoid sanding it down!

So when I start doing the rest with a better ratio of water, should I go over those bits again?

Yes, and stop worrying.
