    Nice video. To all the plasterers knocking this at least there is no plaster on the ceiling, woodwork, beams, floor, window sill, down the sink and drain. The bloody mess plasterers make is unbelievable yet they have a go at a guy doing a tidy job. And let's face it you wouldn't come out and do this anyway, well not for any reasonable price and no price is worth the mess you guys make.

    Hello Sir; I want to thank you so very much! I live in a very old building built in the early 60's and the walls were brick and sand filled as mortal. I could not get any plastering to stick because of the sandy dry bits. However, because of your professional treatment prior to applying the wall plaster I was able to take a crumbling wall and rebuild it to a beautiful strong and smooth wall that looks brand new, well it is brand new. Sir, I owe you so much for this lesson you have my utmost respect as a craftsman. I asked so many people at Lowes and Home depute to help me and they kept telling me to buy things that I didn't even need. Oh by the way, I am a 55 year old woman 56 next month and because of your amazing directions I saved a bundle and now I have an ability that I didn't have before I found this video. If you ever wonder if you are helping anyone let me tell you YES!!!!!!! YOU ARE. I TRULY APPRECIATE YOU SIR.

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  Před 4 lety +1

      Before the undercoat plaster is fully dry, you need to score it to give the finishing plaster something to key onto. In 2-3 days the stuff will be bone dry and will suck the life out of the skim coat so you'll need to PVA it first. You can do your undercoat plaster in the morning and skim it in the afternoon if it's only a patch repair.

    .pva as a primer should never be applied at more than 3 parts water to 1 part pva. other wise you end up with a skin of pva that the plaster is sticking to rather than the surface of the substrate and that actually makes the bond weaker. pva is primer to reduce suction not a glue to stick the plaster to the wall. good job otherwise.

      @@hpt08 hi HP Im applying this to my own 1927 house with clay bricks, and am skipping the PVA. The fact that the wall sucks the moisture out of the plaster, is part of what makes it stick, because it also sucks the lime compounds into its matrix. Im throughly spraying the wall before applying any lime plaster, and spraying lightly after application. So far so good, no cracking and strong as anything, not powdery. I have to admit, getting the right mix has been tricky (soaking hydrated lime, mixing with gymsum hard plaster, roughly 1:1 ratio by weight). This guy appears to be using a different product. I would like to emulate his ability to achieve a smooth blemish-free surface, but my patches are larger and more difficult to achieve this atm

      When the first coat has been in long enough fir you to touch and leave no fingerprints then its ready for a wetter top coat mix to go on top. The finnish plaster is the same, mist use a multi finish plaster.

    Hello again, as I mentioned I think your CZcams is really helpful and after watching it I feel confident enough to do a small patch repair. I've bought a bag of Thistle bonding undercoat, Thistle Multi Finish, a hawk, small paint paddle for drill, a trowel and some PVA. The patch repair is on the corner of the wall above the door. I bought some mini angle bead, mesh to do the corner. I'm not sure how to do this so I was hoping you could give me a bit of advice? If you contact me on the email on my channel then I'll send you a couple of photos, so you can see what I don't understand.
    Thank you.

      You need to attach the angle mesh to the corners, you can seal the brick and using a spirit level and some grab a adhesive fix the angles in place so they are horizontal or vertical. You can drill and screw or nail using non rusting fixings.

    do you have to use PVA? I thought it wasn't recommended for heritage buildings/ breathable lime wall systems as it's essentially a plastic layer. The lime in the plaster will 'suck' into the wall and bond instantly...

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  Před 4 lety +1

      It's not heritage is just brick that needs plastering. Look up what plasters use to bond before applying undercoat plaster. PVA is not plastic.

    Is this the same undercoat plaster that is used to skim as well?

    • @krakenhackenla
      @krakenhackenla Před 5 lety

      No, normally multi finish is used to skim. Think this is like hardwall plaster.

    So if you have a spot we’re there is nothing left in a corner , you just fill it with plaster and then do a skim coat to make it perfect at the end?

    What was that first batch of watery substance you put on, or was it just water you were cleaning it out with ? Cheers

    What is the purpose of the PVA? I am asking it because I can't find it in my country. I have an old house, and I removed all the old and damaged lime plaster from the walls, exposing the brick. Will this PVA help the new cement plaster bond better?

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  Před 4 lety

      Yes, plasterers use it to bond coats.... we dilute it so it soakes in sealing a surface ready for painting... carpenters glue, school glue.. as long as its not waterproof PVA...... thanks

    Was that another top coat mix after the first on or was it the same mix as you left it 20 minutes?

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  Před 5 lety +2

      No you have to make up another mix... dries fast so the first mix would be useless at this point.

    A couple of things.
    Why mess with magnets then just rip it off.
    2 bonding would have been a better plaster to use.
    3.skim the full wall it's a better job.

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  Před 5 lety +2

      Magnets locate the nails then you know where to start and areas to use force. The wall only needed to be patched and not to grow a little.

      Bonding is like blotting paper and can lead to problems with damp.

    Hello again.
    I expect you know, but in case you don't.Instead of hacking plaster off with a bolster and hammer.Which will remove the plaster you want off but also the surrounding plaster can also crack up and work loose. Electricians use a small angle grinder with bag or I assume dust extraction port. It is called a chasing tool, has two adjustable blades on it. I assume can just use one, also can get a chasing tool which fits onto your electric drill.

    • @PaintingandDecorating
      @PaintingandDecorating  Před 5 lety

      You can but the filler is cheap and better to remove anything that is loose in a safe controlled manner . And if you're using anything mechanical make sure you know exact placement of wires or pipes.
