Sounds like your scratching back in to your first coat

If it's for the film anchorman good call. I'm going to be honest with you, that smells like pure gasoline. They've done studies, 60% of the time it works every time.

5 years ago I was floating for £4.30 a metre makes me sick thinking about now your from the northwest algeeman who you working for at the moment if you don't mind me asking?

I find you just have to take the skin of first with your pad then it's alright for the ibar

It would take me two hours to mix up 140 bags never mind getting it on the wall

Never do it with krend if your planing on topping and rubbing back same day it hangs like f#ck

God I look sexy there

It will be fine mate if 10 bags or 50 bags I mix it all up first

Is that not a very heavy high build texture

You will be fine pal just keep you bands small and the joint will stay wet

He did save the customer money on an skim bead tho got to give him credit for that

Thanks pal and to add to it I always work in bands of about 2/3 blocks high going left to right by the time you've got to the end off the panel it should still be wet we're you started

I have 5 blue barrels that fit about 8/9 bags in load all your bags and water up. Say you have a 40 bag panel mix the lot up then both start on the top lift mix that tub up again put you first coat on then one of you drop down mix that tub up and carry on putting the first coat while the other...

Are them fir tree fixing metal? Never seen then before fed up off buying pink grip and nailing beads on is a pain

Agree with that we must mix every barrel about 3 times

Gordon's paying 2.50 a metre now he was only paying £2 a early last year I'm ringing up tomorrow for a start

Disagree with you there pal it's the same mix so it all sets together were if you layed down with a fresh mix then yes you would have the first coat grinning through if you didn't flatten I between coats

Wish my rendering looked that good

Nothing wrong with 2 coating with the same gear I've seen lads leave a better finish one coating than lads two coating with with separate gear if your rough your rough which ever way you do it

Loads of work round lancs pal you could ring up any company and get a start there all crying out for men and prices ain't to bad either

Thanks luv! :RpS_biggrin:

Board and skim first then float and skim, you still scrim the angles were the board meets the wall then when you float the walls it ties it all in simples
