How should I plaster over painted pebbledash?

We have a utility room in our house which was created from an extension onto the side of the house. The previous owners on one side have painted the pebbledash white.
I know wish to plaster over it. What kind of plaster/finish should I use to plaster over it?
Do I need like a base plaster(primer) and then plaster over that? Or will a single plaster do it(is it multi-finish?)

A coat of bonding then multifinish should do the job0

Paint isn't something that provides a good key. I'd be tempted to baton it and screw the boards to those.

Might as well go for solid wall insulation whilst you're at itChanging the world, one sarcastic comment at a time.0

rend aid followed by wallcrete0

Well there was me thinking it would be a nice, find some plaster - stick it on job!
The thing is, they are only small portions of the wall that need doing.
30cm x 220cm (2 sections)
Can anyone suggest a quick fix method maybe?0 -

Flatten with thistle hardwall, then set with multfinish.
Don't use bonding as previously suggested in this thread, as its designed for areas with low suction. Hardwall , is designed for application onto masonary work.0 -
I'd batten it and put plasterboard on. Then plaster on top of that. , provided its not hollow anywhere.0

The pebbledash has been painted, with god knows what, if you want something that will stay stuck to the wall use bonding0
