Skim as soon as set, around 1 ½ - 2 hours after you mixed it. If you let it dry out overnight it will suck like hell & you will then need to dose with PVA.

Normally skim directly onto the boards as long as they are fitted the right way around :LOL: ; but a dose of PVA won’t hurt it & will actually give you a little more time if inexperienced. ;)
