I can end it now for you. I first used these products 10 years ago and it hasn't taken over and it won't

Blue grit is good. If it's a little thick to roll just thin it down with a bit of water. Never had a problem

I went back today to top off some render that was s&c over rib lath over tyveck over ply. There was a hair line crack down every rib in the scratch coat. I told the builder this would happen but they said crack on. I hope it doesn't come through the top coat but I'm not holding my breath

The only down side is the price of it

I've always wondered why they are called a twitch. Does anyone know?

I didn't say i knew them. Its more like stalking. Well thats what the old bill said

I speak with about 10 different people on a daily basis who say to me do you know what would be really good. If they invented magnetic plaster so walls could be magnetic and you could stick metal objects to the wall. I just lied.

This job is starting to kick off now and we done a mock up room and a plant room. Watered down some PVA 5-1 and rolled that on. It skimmed beautifully. No crazing or shelling off and it actually hung quite wet and we had to wait around bit in-between stages. I don't know if they have altered the...

@smoother09 sorry only PVC chapps available at the moment
