    Still problems with multi and board??!!

    Multi finish has always been shite, but it's a lot worse now a lot of people think that the plaster is half normal multi and half the non pva stuff because they couldn't shift it. Use Board or if you do use Multi your timings have to be bang on for troweling up,don't play with it.

Wet sponge and glide over it all gently Wait 5 - 10 mins and flatten with a mediflex or s*p*r*lex. You'll...

    Timings streaks

    This Multi-finish winter batch is terrible I mean it's been shite for years but seems like every bag is different..Some not mixing up together properly, like stiff stuff mixed in with wet on each handboard. And the Tigering in cold weather is savage any pressure on the wall and you'll definitely...

    Sponge float!

    I was the same as most on here and have always skimmed with two coats and trowelled up with a steel trowel, but last few years the finish has changed and on the final polish I could feel the backing coat moving about. So then I tried to be more gentle and my work looked good until it dried and...

    Yeah I've got a 14" MT I've been using for 12 months but just doesn't seem to be sharpening and leaving a bit of a tiger stripe on the wet trowel, I'll keep on with it though

    Are any Trowels now made from Sheffield steel
