Hi everyone, i will soon be re doing my kitchen and will have some plastering to do. The walls are all built using aircrete concrete blocks, there is to be a new doorway in one wall so i will be putting in a concrete lintel. Ive looked at british gypsum's guide and it says you use hardwall for the aircrete blocks and bonding coat for precast concrete ie the lintels.
So my question is which one should i use as i surely cant use both. Ive done some plastering before to a good standard so being able isnt the problem
here's bg's guide i used: http://www.british-gypsum.com/pdf/LIT_Thistle_Plaster_selector_guide_A3_poster_03.pdf
I have a second question, were hhaving glass upstands instead of tiles, im going to remove the old tiles and skim the wall to recieve the glass upstand and paint the rest of the wall where the tiles used to be. Can i just remove the tiles, coat with bondit or blue grit and then skim with multi finish?
Thanks Paul
