Do I prime skimmed and bare plastered board walls before tiling? - TilersForums.com

[glass256]

I have recently stripped the bathroom. I have 2 walls in non water area. One wall is new plasterboard and the other wall is skimmed plasterboard that I have managed to get most of the paint off though planing to use a 120grit orbiter to clean off any loose pain

Both these walls will be tiled over. Do I need to use a specific type of primer on these two types of walls before calling a tiler in to tile the bathrrrom

Thanks

yes, use either SBR or acrylic primer.
Your tiler should do the job and he will probably have his favorite, if he was going to go ahead without it, call a real tiler!
