Patching holes in plaster 1;

Equipment needed is cheap and
simple-some can be home
made-and dry mortar and plas-
| ter mixes now are widely avail
able requiring only the addition
/ of water.
Wall and ceiling patching in
volve the same broad techniques
However, since ceiling patching
| is trickiest, let's examine that
| in detail. Also, because 1t is
lplaster On wood lath than often
causes trouble, we can stick to
this type because the main
principles also apply to other
kinds of lath or plaster bases.
Your first step is to remove
every bit of loose plaster, includ-
ing that which has faxed or
broken away plus that softened
by roof or plumbing leaks.
Done Right, It's Invisible
When you reach solid plaster,
it should be undercut to give the
patch an interlock. Never mind
trying to get straight edges for
the patch, because. if you do
the job right. it should be in
visible when finished.
In the case of wood lath, be
sure to poke the old keying plas-
ter from between the laths so
the new plaster can ooze up
through the cracks and form its
own keys. This is particularly
important on ceilings, where the
wet plaster must bear its own
weight.
You can buy various kinds of
dry mix. If the patch is small
or shallow, you may use only
the more expensive plaster mix.
If it is large, you can save
money by building UP a base
with a cheaper mortar mix. leav-
ing a depth of only about 1s
inch to be finished with plaster
mix.

and mushroom behind them, yet
stiff enough to form strong keys.
Wet the lath thoroughly before
applying the first coat, and be-
fore it sets, scratch the surface
with wire lath or hardware
cloth.
Make a plasterer's hawk by
mailing q handle to a plywood
or hardboard slab about a foot
square. Garry a quart or two of
the mix on this hawk, and scoop
of the mortar with one edge of
a square trowel. Press the laden
trowel firmly against the bare
lath, moving it slowly along
with a vibrating motion to force
the mortar evenly against the
lath faces and between cracks.
If the patch is deep. put the
scratch coat on in two layers,
letting the first set UP before
applying the second, for the
weight Of too much wet plaster
will cause sagging.
Spray Gun Is Handy
Wet each undercoat before
applying the next; an insecti-
eide spray gun is handy for this
work on ceilings. To avoid tiny
shrinkage cracks while the coat
is setting, spray it lightly every
hour or so to prevent too fast
drying.
The finish coat should be but

excess, then brought flush with
