    How to finish basecoat

    Not done much thin coat myself , but found using a wet medium Regina sponge and a spray with water stops any tearing then a spat over the fat leaves a nice and flat finish.

    Original cornicing

    Keep the boards as tight to the cornice as you can, any gaps bond and scrim, but there is no 100% guarantee you might get the odd hair line on the join. Take the old ceiling down leaving 4 inch’s around the cornice and butt up against that, but that’can be messy with an old lath plaster ceiling...

    I’d scat the surface with a sbr, cement and sand mix and let that set before scratch coat to give it a key.
