So just to recap
part old walls that have been filled and sanded and part new plaster. I want to end up with satin white paint. I want a new scim type perfect finnish
Is my thinking of what ive read on here the right way.
Size the new plaster with thin paste
Use 1400 grade lining paper and butt the joins
Paint with trade dulux super matt (cause thats what ive got left over from another job)
Fill the butt joins- yes they were butted but you can still see the joins.
Sand
Prime new filler with 30% paint.
Paint walls with as many coats of my top coat (dulux satin sheene) that will hide the filler.
What is the best filler - is it topret internal
Will the joins lift on my first coat of paint
And what about this for an idea. why not use a white undercoat spray paint down the butt joins to seal prior to filling. As I understand that the wet filler may re wet the paste and re shrink the paper and crack the filler
Or what about using this http://www.screwfix.com/p/no-nonsense-stain-sealer-400ml/40126
