Advice from the pro

[Smash]

Ive got a small private job with painted brick work but i was thinkin to thistle bond it (that green stuff)and float it then set or should i bond it float and set?

Personly I'd scabble it and then bond it with the green primer then dot and dab it failing that building paper and ex metal the wall .

bond it, bonding, skim. only do anything to the paint if its not sound

I've come across lots of walls that have been previously bonded out and skimmed on that we're painted brick work that are hollow and blowing realy not a clever way if getting over it might be a bit more expensive way of doing it (the way I previously said to do it) but Definatly the wright way .
