Hi everyone,
I’m planning a DIY project to create feature walls in my home using MDF floor skirting, VJ paneling, MDF design walls, or ply feature walls. My walls are plastered brick, not gyprock or drywall, and I’m a bit unsure about the best method to attach these materials securely.
Most tutorials I’ve found online are for gyprock walls, which is not helpful for my situation. I’m based in Western Australia, so I’d love advice relevant to our materials and climate.
Here are my questions:
- What’s the best way to adhere MDF or plywood to plastered brick walls? Should I use Liquid Nails or another masonry adhesive?
- Should I reinforce the adhesive with screws or nails? If so, what type (e.g., masonry screws, nail gun, etc.)?
- Are there specific products or techniques that work particularly well for this kind of project?
- If you’ve done something similar, do you have tips for ensuring a neat and durable finish?
- Please tag the products that you have used?
I’d greatly appreciate any advice or recommendations for tools, products, or methods that would work for plastered brick walls. Photos or links to tutorials would also be super helpful!
Thanks in advance for your help!
