plaster.....

Tilers Forums Official Sponsors

Got to be honest your best bet would be to remove one layer of board, 10mm will be difficult to hide even if you plaster the whole ceiling and even trying to feather out 4mm won't be that easy.

Think if it was a tile it would be unacceptable...
 
I understand if it was a tile it would be unacceptable lol it will look ok when its done as I said it aint goota look perfect and its saved the landlord having to get a plasterer out so shes happy lol is there a specific type of plaster I need to get to go up to 10mm? or is any old stuff gonna work?
 
oh nah mate the 10mm lip is inwards so needs filling... the actual ceiling is bowed out a little because of the water damage but is solid
 
You would need to pva on the ceiling and thistle bonding to feather it out to hide the lipping, when that has set then some multi finish to smooth out and coat the bonding.
 
nope never plasterd... the main thing I was worried about was the board not being solid but its turned out it has set and is rock hard... can I go 10mm deep with any plaster and wont have it crack in a weeks time?
 
Oh nearly forgot, you will need to scrim the joints before plastering on the new and existing surfaces of plasterboard...
