Internal stop bead painting

[Ibanezman]

I am going to be plasterboarding a chimney breast, and will be going up to the edge of a new opening for a fire (Will only be decorative). It will have bricks all around inside, so the plasterboard needs finishing as neatly as possible... so...

Can I stick on these stop beads on the sides and top, get it skimmed up to and paint on the edges ? So there would be 1cm ish of painted edge on the inside before it gets to brick

I don't really know if the paint will look ok on the 1cm metal edge

Cheers

u dabbing the boards on? also there will be the 1cm of bead plus the thickness of the plasterboard showing? bets way to finish would be to use a stop bead and use a backing coat then fill in the side of the bead, when painted would look good. when using plasterboard ur always ganna see the board on the inside unless u use a timber bead fitted afterwards?

It's the plasterboard thick stop beads that I got, thanks for the tips. I reckon it might need a little plaster behind the bead to bridge the gap to the brickwork, ta !

The colour is going to be a deep browny\purple hehe ;D

he he you answered your own question in the end!

By time you have dabbed on a plasterboard you will probably have enough depth to put a skim bead on it.

If so you can put a 3 mil stop tight to the brick and skim to the skim bead
