Bare room with freshly sanded wall, prepared for thin plaster application. Ladder, tools, and construction materials visible on the floor.

I have removed old paint and now the plan is to apply a new thin layer of plaster to get an even surface.

I am considering weber Base 135 plaster c hand? As I understand it, I don't need to reinforce?

Hello! I'm going to do the same thing as you! How did you manage to get an even surface to paint on? Take care
 
Hi, I would recommend finja gipsputs, much easier to work with. Best regards, Tobbe

Okej fungerar det i källare alltså ? Mvh Joel
 
Plaster is applied or troweled, then finished with a float or brushed depending on the desired final surface, does not usually need to be reinforced/netted in normal cases.

Moisten the surface thoroughly then apply mortar with a trowel from bottom to top. Not too wide—I would guess about a 30-40 cm wide trowel. After a while, once it’s on the wall, you need to scrub it together to achieve a uniform structure. Timing is key here. It should partially set, but not too much. Wet the float and remove excess from the sponge. Change the water quite often.

It's not easy to achieve a gypsum wall finish for a rookie like me, so I chose to paint on an evened-out wall filler with sand in it to get a texture.

I can take some photos so you can see how mine turned out.

You can use it in the basement.

Superb result, I'm just starting out with a similar company myself, what type of sanded wall filler did you use?

It said to cross-paint for the best result, but after doing that on the exterior foundation, I don't think it turned out well. I don't remember if I rolled the interior, but I think so. I will roll it when I continue on the foundation anyway.

Exactly the product I was looking at :D.

That color is really thick and nice. I like it.
