However, I have made the same mistake as you before and after sanding and skim coating a few times things turned out fine and so far no cracking has showed up. Id just make sure when you skim coat over the crack make sure you get mud into the crack. If you leave any air pockets your asking for trouble. | |

In this age of tech, where everything has spell check, there's no reason for misspellings. When we're all under house arrest and cannot pick up on non-verbal communication clues, clear communication is particularly important. Whether you're asking someone to provide free help or you're providing the help on something that's potentially dangerous or expensive, being clear is critical. | |
