Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q1: What is the difference between Thistle Multi Finish and Thistle Hardwall plaster?
Thistle Multi Finish is a finishing plaster used as the final skim coat on plasterboard or undercoat plaster, giving a smooth, paint‑ready surface. Thistle Hardwall is an undercoat plaster designed for brick, block and high‑suction backgrounds, providing a strong, durable base before the finishing coat.

Q2: Can I use Thistle Multi Finish on brick or block walls directly?
No. Thistle Multi Finish is designed as a top coat over an undercoat such as Hardwall or suitable backing plaster. For brick or blockwork, apply a compatible undercoat plaster first, then finish with Multi Finish.

Q3: Are these gypsum plasters suitable for new build and refurbishment projects?

Yes. Both Thistle Multi Finish and Thistle Hardwall are EN 13279‑1 compliant gypsum plasters, suitable for internal use in new build housing, commercial fit‑outs and refurbishment schemes. They offer a faster, more consistent alternative to traditional sand‑cement renders on many internal backgrounds.
