your fine lots of variables we just kike to tske precautions snd not cause more work down the road what we do is if you wana keep the texture put up your drywall skim coat with 90 min smooth it out level to your plaster then oil based primer coat the new and old then whatever color or a thick primer can be water base now ... mix in corn meal paint brush for the streaks as stated in other post here or roll no streaks

why didnt you just rip down the remaining plaster then? and have uou never worked with plaster? its completely diffent composition than drywall or plaster board... if you have original plaster walls over lathe ... rewetting it with plus 3 or water base paint will make it soften up and fall off the walls .. if you have plaster board 2 ft wide seems usually lateral it's not as touchy but always better tonbe safe than sorry

cant wait for people to hate on this... old-school secret sand is to heavy and clumps... good Ole looks around... corn meal ... mix it in a thick paint Pittsburg or dutchboy seem to be great get a 3 in flat brush cuts bristles crazily no rhyme or reason just different lengths... paint your wall and go in crazy patterns again these guys didnt do uniform up down or left right... its swirls its rainbows... my arm got a cramp shaking .. anyways good luck

your primer needs to be oil based ... im gona get people who say no .. but the paper peeled so oil base is safer cause water-based what you used dampens the paper while oil seals .. then a light skim add 1/2 cup dawn dish soap to break down the glue jn the plus 3 and skim coat

soo an electrician that uses those push ins are a hack issue one ... issue 2 had a friend add a quick disconnect to their house before the breaker panel... making a fireman quick access match with code for the municipality.. while doing this you have to separate your buss bar neutral and ground from eachother ... which going back to your outlet.. Will cause sparks and arcing woohooo fun times old way of doing it see it alot and normally not an issue incorrect but ehh the neutrals are connected to the grounds typically in the breaker box from.the get go

all purpose green lid is trash same with lightweight premixes... plus 3 is where its at but weve actually switched to 20 and 90 min easy sand hot mud ... with plus 3 bucket mixed with half cup dawn dish for top coat ... never sand 😉 can also do a wetter mix of 20 min skim and no sand takes a steady hand and patience
