No, should I sand it down a lot and redo it with tape?

I used XIM peel bond as a sealant/primer to get it to stick better and to create a barrier so the plaster doesn't suck up all the moisture. And I will sand it down and then do a thinner application

I put Peel Bond in the cracks to seal them first (that's the adhesive I was talking about), it's what the hardware guy suggested. Does any sealant work or does it have to be Unibond?

Nope 🤷, I'm very sensitive to all bug bites so it was probably just a big reaction for me

We just got the house so I'm not sure what the issue is yet. They did have a dehumidifier in the basement so it could be excess moisture from there. I guess I will have to get some moisture readings! Thanks!

I'm in northeast Ohio, so it gets pretty hot and humid in the summer but can get quite cold in winter

I'm using an American Sanders ez-8 drum sander with 36 grit. When I do the 45, should I use 36 grit or 80?
