Evening lads I had to leave a set tonight having finished flattening in the first coat. What is the best plan of action now, obviously have to throw on 2 coats again. Can I PVA in the morning or should I wait for it to fully dry?

Loving it mate! Can't wait to get on the job with a spread!! The lad at gold trowel really pushes you which is what I need having never worked in the building trade. This site has been really helpful too! How long you been spreading mate? Do you still enjoy it? Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Spent 3 weeks down those streets and loved it ;)

You have not been to Cuba if you haven't been to Havana! Sadly it's all about to change. Good for the locals though! Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Not sure bud I'll ask for it at that plus VAT tomorrow and see what they say.

It will have to be TP for me here so I'll ask for it at that price cheers lads

Hey guys how much and where do you all get your multi from? I hear you can negotiate with TP if you can find it cheaper so want to go in with some ammo. Cheers Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Thanks mate

Seen his clips mate. Interesting but I'd rather get amongst it and learn it for real

Sorry to hear that mate back pain ain't a nice thing :/ I'll keep that in mind I must say tho I think one of the things that has attracted me to the trade is that I just want an excuse to buy a pair of stilts lol. Just had a thought what do you guys use for plastering stair Wells it's just I'm...

Hey mate I'm from Cornwall next to Plymouth. I'm doing the 6 week course as it is part of my resettlement package I get for time served so it's free. I have also signed up for the NVQ at Plymouth colleague which I think is about a year but they said they would expect me to do it in a shorter...

Yeah I hear that the trade can take its toll. I don't know what it is I could have done any of the trades but for some reason I'm fixated on plastering. I am aiming once I have a handle in the trade to go back to gold trowel and add ceramics to my cap as I just want domestic jobs. Loving the...

Happy days I thought they looked the part mate. Fair play for running with it dude. I just want to work on my own after years of taking s**t lol. From what I've been reading on here I'll probably get more s**t tho lol Sent from my D5803 using Tapatalk

Who did you go with mate. I'm taking mine with gold trowel. Then I'm going to college for a year just to stay in some form of training. I think gold trowel offer the NVQ but the college one is a diploma so I'm just going to do both. Hopefully work with a mate for a year or 2. Sent from my D5803...

Well lads I'm leaving the military after 14 years and want to get into plastering. I am booked on what I think you all call a 6 week chancers course and then on to college for a year. I'd like to go self employed at some stage in a year or so time. Any help or advise would be mint lads!
