notrub Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Hi gain and thank you for useful comments etc.. Separating the supply of paint and labour is clearly the way to go, thanks for that. In farang land I have used PVA glue watered to 20 odd % to seal plaster walls and to stop bleeding through paint of ball point pen and red chalk line chalk on plasterboard (gyprock) walls. Could it be worthwhile to consider using this solution on new 30 day old concrete render? Regards the thought to plaster our walls b4 painting. We have just rendered our walls with rendering cement about 1 month ago and they did a very good job. I would prefer not to go to the expense and delay and mess of plastering on top. I was hoping to go for a single primer coat and a single coat of off white paint. Comments welcome. We are living in a bit of a shack beside our house project and cannot wait for the day when we wake up in our new house/home. We are getting very close (few weeks). We got ripped off by our contractor, which is a shame and leaves a bad taste in the mouth as well as hurting the pocketbook. I would like to find a way to let others know and warn about him, in the Buriram area, but don't know how to go about it. Grateful for any comments on that too.

kannot Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 youll need at least 4 coats is my advice forget the pva and it wont stop bleed thru of anything as its water based, for that youll need an oil based sealer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notrub Posted December 24, 2016 Author Share Posted December 24, 2016 Hi Kannot, PVA solution is great to stop ball point pen and chalk from bleeding through. There are some who use the wall to make notes during construction using a pen. Also red chalk bleeds if it has been used. I have had lots of experience with this and it works every time.
