    Knauf Airless

    Not long really, depends how neat we are. we use a flex sander for most then a hand sander round internals. To be honest we are still trying different ways, could use a chat with currier to pick his brains. Also no need for a labourer at all, we usually spray with two of us but if i wanted to...

    Knauf Airless

    We started using it last autumn, the way i consider it viable for a job is if there would be at least four days worth of traditional plastering then the airless becomes an option. day 1 prep day 2 1st coat day 3 2nd coat day 4 sanding It's not going to replace multi, but on the right jobs it's...

    painted brickwork

    yeah walls are alot easier to keep clean on than the ceilings have been, but i'll try a few things and hopefully essexandy and currier will share their experiences too.

    painted brickwork

    painted brickwork
