Question:
I have a small room with three walls needing some replastering work (after water damage). One wall has been brought back to brickwork, one wall is original lime (1870), with some small damaged areas, but clean, and one wall has been brought back to clean studs. 1. How to use Adaptavate smooth on the existing lime plaster wall? Can it go straight on? How much wetting of original plaster is needed? 2. Can you use Adaptavate smooth on new plasterboard? 3. Can you do scratch, float and skim on an old dry brick wall in one day? Thanks
Answer:
Sure, I can address your questions about the Breathaplasta Smooth Finishing Plaster. 1. For applying the Breathaplasta on existing lime plaster, it can be applied directly. However, the amount of wetting needed on the original plaster can vary, and we recommend referring to the product's technical information for the best practices. You can find it here: Technical Information. 2. Yes, the Breathaplasta Smooth Finishing Plaster can be used on new plasterboard. 3. Conducting a scratch, float, and skim on an old dry brick wall in one day can depend on several factors, including the condition of the wall and the specific application method used. Generally, it's possible, but it might be best to allow each layer to dry before applying the next for optimal results. For more detailed information, you may want to consult the Technical Information document or contact the manufacturer directly.
Question:
What is required when applying to existing plastered surfaces with painted finishes?
Answer:
When applying the Breathaplasta Smooth Finishing Plaster to existing plastered surfaces with painted finishes, you may need to prepare the surface by ensuring it's clean, dry and free of any loose material. If the paint is glossy or non-absorbent, you may need to create a key for the plaster to adhere to, often by scoring the surface or applying a bonding agent. However, for specific instructions, I would recommend referring to the Technical Information document provided on the product page. It should provide more detailed guidance for application on different surfaces. Here is the link to the document: Breathaplasta Smooth Finishing Plaster Technical Data Sheet.
