ThanksI have a 1200 which is great on big areas, but been thinking about getting a 600 for when there's alot of cables in the way. You can finish with one of the blades but I just use it for flattening. They have to be the best tool out there, anyone who doesn't use one is just making the job harder on themselves

Mini speedskim brilliant muckerI kept the off cuts and made a selection of minis , often on overskims you get margins around doors just in between trowel lengths. These come in handy

Ok lads can any body give me some advice on speed skim questions I'd like to ask . Is it any good ? Do u trowel before finish ? Which sise blade is most popular ? Or do u stik to old school lol
I personally think there pony but maybe its because i havent got use to using it or using it well. The picture above looks like a blinding bit of finishing!!! But i use the blue blade to flatten in the first coat if its a big hit ect so no horriable lines come through [emoji1303][emoji1303]

To be fair blue blade alone I can't do anymore then flatten, i love it for that but nothing more... I'm now a believer after buying the SF lol........ haven't worked out if it can be any faster but it's a nice change on big areas.
Ill just stick to the trowels. Speed skims Maybe quicker but still takes the same time to go off. So keep yaself fit and get round it lol

Use 1200 all the time, game changer for me. Got a 600 but never use it, try to then just pick mediflex up as not much smaller.
to be fair i have never managed to finish with the speedskim... I like them for flattening in and what not
Same i think there qualitt for flattening the first coat especially on big hits
