Hi. I’m building a metal stud wall in the garage to make a utility room. I’m painting over the existing brick walls (not dry walling the whole room). My question is how do I seal the joint between the new plasterboard wall and the brick walls? They meet at a 90 degree angle.
Also, the outer side of this plasterboard wall will be 2m from the garage door, making it like a mini garage.
Do I need to do anything special to seal the exposed side?
How should I seal the gap between the plasterboard and the concrete floor (I’m using skirting board on the inner side)?
Can I use normal plasterboard or should I use moisture resistant? I plan to use waterproof paint to match the brick.
Thanks!
