Apply in dabs to substrate or plasterboard; 50mm to 75mm wide and approximately 250mm long, positioned vertically at approximately 300mm centres (approximately 50mm apart), and of a minimum of 25mm thickness to provide a substantial bond when the plasterboard is positioned and tapped back into true alignment.
