Scrimming on a Rebate Before Applying Plaster

by ajbrinham » Wed Dec 13, 2017 12:21 pm

I have been advised before applying plaster to my new patch, to chisel around the border of the existing plasterboard. This would mean the tape will be in this rebate rather than over the joint. The advantage of this is less plaster on the joint.

Thoughts?

Thanks
