Had to happen sooner or later.
Well today I was skimming a big wall (for me around 4mx2.5m) and I found the plaster going off whilst I was doing the first layer :/
Even though I PVA'd the the wall it was about 60% fo the wall and after 3-4 minutes after applying the plaste rwould rip/tear, what i'd expect after 20-25 minutes.
So I cut my loses, flatened the wall best I could using a spray bottle to get the plaster moving.
I'm sure this must be due to suction, so the answer for next time? PVA the wall with a 3.1 the day before and then again before plastering
