8) hi guys site looks good just wondering how soon can you plaster sand cement render on internal walls of an old kitchen, i normally leave it a week but just wondering could you plaster the render say 6 to 8 hours later? :-\ 

thanks mate, of course that make sence, some times we you ask a question that really you should know the answer to :-[kirk johnstone said:no mate what it is... sand and cement shrinks when drying so if you skim it this will set and the cement will still shrink so it will crack the skim![]()
richardbrown said:just skim it pro ....... yes in an ideal situation leave it to dry out but 99% of jobs they want it done and done yesterday. if the job is large where i have a weeks worth of floating then i leave it but small jobs i float and skim the next day.
How many builders/customers/developers etc are happy to wait a week before you finish then another week before they can paint????? ......answer...... NONE!
