Polycell 'Polyfilla' plasterskim filler

[Richard Blackwood]

Has anyone experience of using this?

I have to improve the surface of a hallway in a terraced house and a small bedroom. The kind of problems are where wallpaper has been stripped off leaving that patchy, mottled(?) effect on the wall.

You mean the pre-mixed stuff ? If so yes, it's excellent, but the most expensive way per square inch of covering a wall. Try the Wickes own brand stuff first - it's a third the price but needs more effort, or mix it yourself using a 10kG sack of EasyFill from B&Q (don't mix it all at once !).

Thanks for the suggestions!

Would I be able to get away with using the plasterskim filler on sections of the walls do you think - as and where needed? Large areas of the plaster are ok. Or would I have to do the whole area with thiss stuff from start to finish?

Sorry for any dull questions - real diy novice here :)

I'd just do the bad bits and see how you get on. If it's first time then use the Polyskim as it's mixed exactly right.
