Cracking of wet plaster
Hi all,

Been teaching myself plastering. Just plastered two cupboard walls on a hot day. One was over old painted plaster which I had pva'd over first, the other, new plasterboard. The pva'd wall has started cracking up (but in not laughing ;)

Any ideas why this might be?

Many thanks,

Paul
