Plastering on soot.
Feb 10^th, 2005, 6:04pm

I have removed a chimney breast in my 1895 built house and am preparing the walls before I call a plasterer in. The fire has left soot deposits on the bricks. I have scraped off as much as I can but there's still a lot left on the bricks. Should I treat the bricks with anything to stop the soot leaching through the plaster etc? Advice appreciated please.
