When I finish my partition wall which if it looks ok I dont intend skimming (skimming not my best DIY skill). Can I use some skimming powder I have for joint filling after I tape the joints or do I need to get something else?
a dash of pva should help.

Yes I have some PVa so will use that.
thanks to all who took the time to reply.
By "skimming powder" do you mean finish plaster? If so I would not suggest using it as a filler. Get the proper board fill since it is easier to apply and feather, and more importantly, much much easier to sand to a good finish.
Yes thats what I was meaning. What brand name for `proper board filler` and where best to buy. I assume I dont need to buy a 20 kilo bag :-( and smaller quantities are available.
I'd reccomend

Pretty sure wickes do it in 10kg bags. All the PB and plaster makers do it.
