G'day guys,

I need to repaint my bathroom and laundry however some areas are peeling back to the plaster.

How do I prep these areas? My first thought is to sand then bog over however something tells me that isn't right as I will be boging over two uneven and different surfaces.

A good random orbit sander is your friend ( with dust extraction)

youve gota get the unsound material off I fill any dings with filler plaster jointing paste is good.

sand it smooth with 120 gritt follow with wall board sealer

if you are fussy light sand again

more wall board sealer

paint as normal


make sure you add molud inhibiter to all coats its worth it.
