Alignment and plastering preparation

Speaker alignment required for plastering
After removing a 30-50mm (3/16 - 2”) wide
section of existing plaster surrounding the
cutout, the front face of the speaker should
be flush with the paper face of the
plasterboard.
This is the method that will be used during
plastering (Section D). It positions the speaker
to be patch plastered with a 2mm (5/64”)
skim across the speaker front, blended with
the existing plaster on the plasterboard.
Amina recommend British Gypsum Easi-fill®
which allows a smooth accurate finish using
fine sandpaper or a wet sponge.
For walls /ceilings that have already been
plastered.
