You can't rush quality in other words..

You can hurry it along though with the right knowledge.

You can buy stain block spray, or if ( your a tight arse from yorkshire ) any oil based paint will do the trick, think about the cost of the brush though.

Do you use your tape to mask the edges too ?

the whole of that wall is damp is it not look at the bottom 2ft

 

[Stevieo]

of course, contract emulsion it allows plaster to continue drying out.

I'll tell you exactly what happens. The day after I finished a job, the phone goes to say that the customers wall has dried all patchy. Turned out he'd painted it the second I was gone.

It stayed all patchy looking for a while and dried out perfect in the end.

Someone on here said he was on a real throw it up site once and went for a s**t after he'd given it a second trowel.

Came back and the painter had mist coated it.
