Hi,
I just searched this forum for skim related answers, but can't quite find what I'm looking for.
I've had two walls skimmed by my local plasterer and just waiting for them to dry. He used the British Gypsum Mutti-Finish Thistle stuff
I wanted to know what I should apply before I start painting. He recommened I apply diluted white paint as it works the same as (and is cheaper than) the primer/sealer stuff.
However, some of the older members of the family are suggesting I should use watered down PVA. In their opinion, using paint will start cause the paint to flake in 2-5 years time.
Could someone please tell me what is the best product to use ?
I don't mind buying Primer / Sealer stuff, but would like to get your opinion on what's best to use.
Many Thanks
