Big mistake? Mist coat but forgot to dust
Anonymous user 09/03/2024 - 2.56 PM
Hi I sanded the walls down after the plasterer finished using a machine and they look good. I forgot to dust the walls or wash them before applying no nonsense wattered down paint. It is dry and it looks fine but will the paint peel off later? Should i sand the walls again and reaply the mist after washing the walls down? "Thanks Timothy. I had to sand it because the plasterer started fine upstairs but got progressively worst. My mistake because i agreed to pay him in stages even it only took a week so by the time he done in the dinning there was very little left to pay. And the walls were un even and bad. He demanded payment in full for no reasons i said no until he fixes all bad plaster so he walked off. I had to in the emd sand the walls down and the smooth now and it looks like the mist is been sucked in by the plaster. I used no nonsense bare plaster mixed with 10% water. Upstairs i dont need to sand. Just trying to mist to save a little on decorator bills. Thanks for the great advice"
