So i patched my wall using stopping compound as cement is a bit hard to work with, actually both also hard to work with, stopping compound in my bucket dries and hardened before i complete.
Now that i patched, put on a layer of undercoat paint, only to noticed there is hollow sound when knock on patch area, is this normal? It happends to the bigger patch area the hollownsound is like a very hard layer not sticking, the smallet one near the window doesn't have a less audible hollow sound.
Is this normal for a patched wall, or i need redo the patching? Before i eventually paint it
[attachmentid=10547068][attachmentid=10547069][attachmentid=10547070][attachmentid=10547071]

probably due to the material density is different compared to cement. so the sound also will sound diff. not as solid.

I think so, because the hollow area is near joint of plastered patch and good area, likely i was trying to smooth out that area didnt put much force and density there. I think I'll wait a week more to see if the hollow worsen or spread to other partt, else just paint coat it. Too much hassle and dust to redo especially sanding part..... Fell sick for 2 days after sanding despite wore mask and goggles

did u wear correct type of mask or not? surgical mask dont count.

Lol, double 3 ply normal mask only.

Hi,

I am planning to paint the wall as per photo attached myself.

My understanding to properly paint the wall, I need to:

- clean the wall with high pressure water jet. I believe this can be replaced with mopping with cloth + warm water;

- apply a layer of primer/ sealer;

- apply two layer of paints. Wait for the first layer dry and only apply the second layer.

Anything in details which I need to pay attention to?

Possible can skip any steps as I don't wish to spend so much money buying the paints and the primer. It looks more works that I original thought.

Just finished painting one of the wall. ( pic before and after)

The upper part of the wall was less than perfect...hmmm

I have wash the wall with warm water with a bit of dishwasher liquid and later spray the wall with water garden hose. Later, I applied one layer of sealer and two layer of white paint on the wall. Look like it was not good enough...

Look like i may need the stronger water spraying tool such as high pressure water jet which used by some of the contractor to clean the wall.

Give it another 1 or 2 coats, it should looks white.

the lower part of wall I only coat with 1 layer of paint

upper part of the wall already coated with 2 layers...but still no as good as lower part of the wall.
