  2. Lay down some drop-cloths that will collect any plaster that drops down. This will keep your work area clean and also save you time during the clean up later on. Clean the wall from top to bottom to get rid of dust, debris, make the brick wall smooth and clean ready for plastering. Have your work area well prepared by setting up clean tools that will be used for plastering. Use PVA glue to scratch the wall and prime the stained area for the plaster to adhere firmly. The walls and ceilingsshould be plumb and flush to avoid bumps and indentations on the finished wall. In case of any crack in the walls, repair them before plastering. Run your fingers on the surface to make sure the wall is smooth and ready.

  3. One of the best- recommended products is the British Gypsum Hardwall, which is a fast-drying plaster product designed for masonry background including brick Walls. Mix the product with cool clean water and stir using a rod to incorporate it until it forms a mound. Technology has introduced many products and materials to choose from. Its ease of use has made it highly recommended by contractors. Remember to add plaster mix to the water, not the vice-versa. Stir the plaster mixture to ensure it’s in perfect condition. You can determine if the plaster is thick enough and ready by putting a wooden paint stirrer straight down into the mixer. If the stirrer stands on its own, the plaster is ready for use.

  4. When the plaster is mixed properly, it can not stick on the hawk during the application, you can also wet the hawk slightly to help it release. Once the plaster is prepared well enough it is now ready for plastering. The plaster is applied to the wall with the help of a trowel. It is recommended to apply the thick coat of Hardwall roughly to the thickness of 11mm. Once this is done you can use the feather edge to obtain a flat straight finish. Smear the plaster as you go from corner to corner then rule it off using a straightedge to get a flat nice finish. Always make sure the plaster is sitting directly in the centre of the trowel for accuracy and efficiency.

  5. Use plaster on interior walls because it decomposes with a lot of moisture.

  6. • Working with plaster for the first time can be a race against time. You will need to be extra careful to avoid making mistakes. • Do not be too slow to allow the plasterto dry before you finish. https://www.myplasterersmelbourne.com/procedures- to-follow-when-plastering-a-brick-wall/
