Plastering and decorating
06
Apply PVA
Using a brush or foam roller, apply a
thin coat of neat PVA (wood glue) to the
entire speaker panel surface, this will
assure proper adhesion between the
panel surface and the plaster coating.
Important: Amina recommends you
leave the 1 coat of PVA to completely
dry. Once dry, add another single coat
of PVA immediately prior to plastering.
Fill gap between speaker and
surrounding area
It is important to ensure that plaster is
pushed into the 2mm (5/64”) gap that
surrounds the speaker. This will create
a strong bond between the edge of the
speaker and the plasterboard/render.
This prevents any cracks appearing in
the final skim finish.
IMPORTANT: There MUST be a gap of
2mm (5/64”) all the way around the
speaker edge. If there isn’t simply
remove the speaker and increase the
aperture size accordingly.
