pelesheroes GDPR opt-out	painting over new plaster Jul 10^th, 2008, 4:19pm just had a load of plastering done and have started to emulsion over it, no problem except in a couple of places I can't seem to cover the skim bead, plasterer was no help, do I need to cover/coat it with something else first to improve adhesion ? many thanks

Mind you, you have probably done it by now.
