PLASTERING A PAINTED SURFACE.

Beer Paunch

My neighbour a true Townie ( a term of endurement we call city folk who now live in the country) popped in looking to borrow a pick. A pick ? Ye a pick. I want to plaster the wall in the basement but it is covered in paint and the plaster will not stick. I need to chip holes with the pick to ensure it sticks.

Townie, with that beer paunch you will not get far. Forget the pick. Lets pop down to the hardware store for some bonding liquid. Bring your wallet.

Bonding plaster to a smooth surface requires a brush down with a wire brush, an application of bonding liquid.Wait till dry and plaster.

No more chipping. Your local hardware store will show you the correct product.

HAVE FUN.
