This crack looked minor, until I investigated further! No need to panic - just follow a process:
1. Clean it all out and hoover.
2. Seal with pva or PeelStop.
3. For deep cracks, bond with R-Kem resin - dries super quick and rock hard.
4. A layer of Toupret Fill Flex..contains tiny fibres to provide flexible strength.
5. Finish with powdered filler.
6. Prime and paint.

Yet another flaking bathroom ceiling. Mould killer on any black spots, then scrape and rub down affected areas and coat with Peel Stop. Then 2 coats of Zinsser CeilingPro.

Today's view from the office! It's a bit warm! Oh and these patches remind us how important it is to 'mist' coat or seal new plaster!

This bathroom has a number of peeling and flaking patches. Here's the fix:
1. Scrape until a decent edge...scary!
2. Sand with medium grit.
3. Apply Zinsser Peel Stop.
4. Skim/Fill using a soft, powder based filler so that you dont see edges around peeled area.
5. Rub down gently, for final finish.
6. Prime/seal. I use Zinsser Bullseye.
7. Top coat with an eggshell or bathroom paint.
