    Unifinish

    It boils down to have you tried it. How many have tried it? My missus goes on about how she hates seafood etc. but has never actually eaten clams and stuff

    Unifinish

    You're right. It's for artex, paint no suction. It'll go over everything else but you need to know timings as you'd expect. It's just crap marketing. It's something aimed at the DIY market that's never going to sell. Needs rebranding and repricing. It's got it's place. Nice bags as well. Has BG...

    Are you second coating with it? Second coating with it ends up streaky as f**k like the Exxon Valdiz

    Unifinish

    It would work. I'm no advocate of BG. But it's a good product imo. Just over priced. Well over priced. Which in the end will mean it won't get the exposure. Supply and demand. No merchants stock it near me.. Just B and Q at £12 plus a bag. Just don't get the bad feedback. It seems to be based...

    Unifinish

    Used unifinish today over artex ceiling and it was bang on as usual. Always second coat with board or uni. Did half the painted / scabby freeze in unifinish and the other in board.

    What are you doing today?

    Whole of upstairs is covered in Artex. It was out of date and got it for a pound a bag. Got ten bags, went back next day for the rest but they'd gone. They don't shift. The new pallet is out of date in three weeks so has been there a while. I find it fine Marshy. I only use it on artex tbh...

    Why don't you take on a female like this bloke? They probably pat attention to detail and will work harder to prove themselves in what's viewed as a man's trade. Maybe they're a man and wife team like Hart to Hart? I wouldn't want to work with the missus all day. I look forward to getting out...
