Hi guys.

As per my other post, I have a small kitchen i am plastering (back to brick) and need every half a cm i can get in order to fit the cupboards and appliances without reducing a cupboard size.

On one wall im bonding, where space really matters, surprise surprise there is an area of wall that isn't level, and comes in 1cm ish at around door height, and then goes back out again. the area is a few bricks high by 2 bricks wide. I can get a minimium of 1cm thick bonding above and below this area, but at the area in question it will be very thin, unless i make the top and bottom thicker.

What is the realistic minimum thickness of bonding I can get away with?
 
Does it need bonding? Can’t the finish coat cope with that? (BTW, I’m not a plasterer so just curious).
