crispy_wafer Posted Friday at 04:59 Posted Friday at 04:59 Morning folks, I’m creeping slowly towards the end of my dot and dab journey, saving the best till near the end. I’ve got a block internal wall that runs out of plumb by approx 35mm. I’m confident enough to handle 20mm out of plumb without over pressing the board into the dabs, but 35mm is too much for me to deal with. I’m thinking if its possible to trowel something onto the wall to take out the worst of it say 10-15mm or so before attempting to board it. If so, what bagged product should i ask for at the merchants? Thanks Marek
Conor Posted Friday at 05:13 Posted Friday at 05:13 We had a wonky wall and instead of dot and dab we used the gyproc rails on the walls. Allowed us to get it perfectly flat and true.
crispy_wafer Posted Friday at 08:02 Author Posted Friday at 08:02 yeah, but, being the daft smart arse i am, I've already boarded half the wall upto 1.2m, as I could handle the 20mm ish runout. Good idea though! I'm thinking I could slap some bonding coat on the wall, but I dont know if (A) I can d&d over it (B) if that is the right product to use?
Conor Posted Friday at 08:12 Posted Friday at 08:12 A 15mm sand and cement scratch coat would do the job.
