Hi @Maymay,
It's great to hear from you again.
Is this wall inside or outside?
If it is inside you will use the same products and techniques as you used with your damaged ceiling. Instead of making the joins smooth, you'll be making the whole surface smooth. You should find this step-by-step tutorial helpful: How to patch plaster.
Once you are finished with the plaster you should find this article helpful: How to paint like a professional by @Peggers
We look forward to assisting you with your project.
Mitchell
Thank you for your prompt reply and did help me for the last few times.
Yes! The wall is indoor, I will follow what you showed me the video.
The outside wall also got some paint off caused uneven surface, can I use the same product or something else ?
I am going to Bunnings now
Many thanks
May
With the outside wall, you will need to use a different product. If you can please post a picture I can tell you what product to use. It might just need to be sanded and then repainted.
please find attached 2 photos which most of the paint been peeled off and some are puffy by rain
Thank you
If would advise scraping away any loose paint with something like a Craftright 5-in-1 Scraper. After that, you might like to sand the paint edges to make sure there are no rough transitions. You can then paint over the area with a self-priming exterior paint similar to Dulux Weathershield.
As always, it would be great to see your results when complete.
Please let me know if you need further assistance or had questions.
I will add if you don't want to repaint the whole wall, take a chip of the old paint to your local bunnies and they can colour match for you.
It sounds easy for me not need to cement
Regards
Hi Brad
Thank you for your advice, I already took a chip of the wall paint to match the colour
With my interior brick wall, what sort of GYPROCK compound to choose ? They are so many to choose from
The Diy Topping Comp Less Mess 2.25kg would be perfect for filling the un-even interior wall. Did you have any products left from your ceiling repair? You should be able to use them to fill the area.
Please let me know if you have more questions.
Thank you for your advice, I have no more product left from my ceiling repair, I will buy the one you told me
That looks much better! I think you have done a fantastic job and you have surely saved hundreds if not thousands of dollars by doing all these projects by yourself.
You should feel very proud of your efforts.
Well done.
