Plasterboard and Mortar

Does ordinary sand & cement mortar stick OK to plasterboard?

Dunno? never had the inclination to try it.

Why would you want to?

Never tried it but I would think that if PB was sealed with PVA diluted and then fresh bonding with undiluted PVA, then it would stick as well as plaster.

And if that does not work, then stick expanded metal lath on it first... lets you render just about anything!

Very good advice! Actualy you could do away with the plaster board and just have the EML.
