To remove the old plaster from the walls, it is necessary to first examine the entire surface and make sure whether it is worth removing the plaster completely or it is enough to remove only the places requiring repair from the walls. Prepare the necessary tools for work, we will show you how to remove the plaster correctly.

Necessary

scraper, spatula, hammer, possibly another handy tool, goggles for eye protection, gloves and overalls

Instructions

Step 1

Take a hammer and tap the entire surface of the work area. Plaster that does not hold well should crack and fall off easily. Then take a scraper and scrub the walls.

Step 2

If the plaster adheres to the surface very firmly and does not fall off from hammer blows, then the work surface should be moistened.

Step 3

To moisten the inner walls (so as not to flood the room with water), take a bucket of water with a rag or brush and, wetting the rag (brush), abundantly moisten the stubborn plaster (you can carry out the procedure several times).

Step 4

Allow time for the plaster to get wet and soften. After that, again, tapping with a hammer, try to knock it off the wall (wet plaster will fall off much more easily).

Step 5

After the bulk of the plaster has been removed, all you have to do is scrub the wall with a scraper and a coarse brush.
