Does it matter if it dries for an hour or a day? Or does it need to have mud compound applied in a certain window? Just wanna make sure if i can apply now so it dries then do the mud tomorrow
@@Lefishn great question. Let it fully dry. Dry time depends on temperature. Once fully dry, typically in an hour or less you can then apply your plaster or compound 👍🏾
I use durbond 45 brown bag let stick dry alil and use a spray bottle with a lil drip of dish detergent and water to smooth out comes out strong and rest to paint
@@soundbwoikilla764 you need to control suction by wetting the lath. Overall, Im a bit skeptical about plaster weld, especially in this application. Wood lath certainly has different expansion rate compared to plaster and thing them together feels problematic. My preferred approach is to use metal lath(even over wood lath) if I think it won’t key in properly. Plaster weld to me is more appropriate when going over existing finish/plaster
@@vitaliyzakharov6708 I agree with you but you seem more knowledgeable than the typical DIYer. Without plaster weld you have to be fairly diligent about cleaning the old lath and the plaster edges. For the DYIer looking to patch a couple spots and a 5 minute youtube explanation, I think plaster weld is a good idea. I would definitely use plaster weld if plastering over existing plaster.
@@TeraeB my house was built over a 100 years ago, it's one of the first houses built in this area of Wisconsin. The walls however are plaster and are cracking and buldging out. Would you be able to see it and give a crash course of "how to" repair.
@@TeraeB pretty much there's cracks in the plaster looks like the walls splitting. My guess is the lifespan of the plaster is met idk 🤷♂️ so if I break away the raised plaster that's breaking up from the cracking can I tape it and plaster over like drywall?
I never knew about this product. It's gonna help me for my project. THX 👍
Happy it was helpful!! Works amazingly 💯
Good info! Thx!
No problem, thank you

Very nice 👍🏾
Thank you. Extra protection never hurts
Exactly 💯
Do you think plaster keying in is not enough? Im curious why you need plaster weld
Keying is important but if your plaster keying isn’t bonded to the surface then it still will fail. Unless you have a solid mechanical bond
the lath will suck water out of the plaster leading to failure at the keys

Use mesh works better and faster
This is a bonding agent 👍🏾
You let it dry first? Will it re activate when you apply the plaster
Let it dry. Doesn’t need to be wet 👍🏾
This guy is painting his lathe. Classic
Bond for repairs is crucial. What drugs are you on lol
Bonding agent my friend 👍🏾
What if the latch has paint on it, would the plaster still adhere with this
If the paint isn’t delaminating from the lathe than you should be ok. That’s why I use a bonding agent that helps prevent that
@@TeraeB ok thanks so much
@@scsujoy of course!
@TeraeB would you mind linking some communication with me? I need some kinda eye to lmk what to do and how to fix please 🙏
Sorry what do you mean?

@@theodorebrown2490 Ah gotcha. Sure, all repairs on plaster can be extensive depending on what you are wanting to achieve overall
