I find the ragni carbon steel trowels I have start to corrode and get marked very quickly any time I use it. They are only used occasionally. I clean them after use each time. Is there any way I can stop this from happening. Thanks

Stripped a wall and found a dark grey band round the wall. It appears to be used to level out the wall in the same way an bonding would be used now. I know it is a vague description but curious to know what it is an if it is ok to skim over. It was put up quite a long time ago.

Stripped a room today ready to skim. One wall had plasterboard with brown side out and unpainted . It has been on for 10 plus years. I believe this was normal at the time. Wondering if it is ok to just pva and skim on this surface. This is just a small diy project Cheers

Been on this site for awhile and thought I would say hello. Very good site with lots of good information. Not a plasterer myself although done some in a diy capacity.
