Condition of plasterboard

Posted by Alex Bell, on
I have removed tiles from a plaster boarded wall in my bathroom which I would now like to have plastered to create a smooth surface for painting. However the plaster board contains some holes that are patched with filler and I am wondering whether skimming will be sufficient to create the desired surface.

It would be best to apply bonding coat first to fill holes & give extra strength then skim G , branch plastering
