Re: [papercreters] Lath and Plaster replacement...



Attach metal lath to your old lath and use whatever mix you want.

Hello Everyone,

I am looking to completely replace the plaster on my lath and plaster walls in some areas and patch it in other areas. I was not worried about my mix when I was thinking to just patch a few spots, but as all projects go in a 129 year old house there is nothing that is straight forward and simple.

As I started to break away a damaged spot a few inches in diameter it ended up about 12'X 30" and a portion of it is on the ceiling.

Does any of our more experienced creters have a recipe that can work in this application? I really don't wish to be going up stairs and have it falling off the ceiling and getting conked on the head...lol might make for a nasty fall.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Jeanne
