Ideal for short men with big rods

Use Trisodium citrate for retarder. Much cheaper. Can be used in both coats.

Use a multi tool . Nice clean cuts. Easy enough to remove beading.

Use Dulux trade supermatt for mist coat. Only dilute with 10% water and go from there. Put second mist coat on once sorted imperfections. Dulux trade covers well.

Yes

Leave everything to your plasterer. If you get involved you will likely cause problems. Supply tea and pay promptly upon completion

Great product for smaller jobs. Used many times already since it was launched. Time saver and money maker

Products for cleaning hand tools. Carbon steel, vinegar and salt to remove rust. Oiled to preserve condition. Stainless tools, bicarbonate soda to remove residue. Any other ways to look after tools ???

Buy plenty from r and j building supplies, ellis building products as well. Also look for online promotions. Steer clear of <free gift> offers. Nothing ever free of charge. Ffx good for tools.

Moisture resistant board needs a bonding agent applied first. Use the one from Wickes. Let it dry then 2 coat multi finish.

The thought of being in bury at 6am whether it's June or July. Makes me want to crack my own dome. At least see the sun rise

If the bellend was anything special he would have done more than become a decorator

Used Vistaprint before. Any other companies out there? Want some quality cards not cheap rubbish.

Are these plaster spots still available? Down to last couple of packets

Search ebay. Chap on there sells every type and gives discount for bulk purchases. Not bad quality either

Do the job for the original quote. Take it on the chin. Accept usually you make dollars. Blame it on the great reset

Pressures on customers

Would you buy a second hand boiler? Get a new ceiling and plastered ready for painting. First job order skip. Leave rest to a local tradesman

If it's unpainted artex then everbuild or bond it stabilising solution first for larger ceilings. Pva afterwards Once stabiliser has dried off then apply pva Remember some suction is required. If in doubt overboard or take down and re board

Wickes gyproc orange scrim. Discount if you buy 12 rolls. Plus usual 10percent off works out about £56 for 12 rolls

Diesel and everything else won't be coming down. New normal

If you can earn extra taking a bit longer then so be it. Work smarter not harder!!

Can happen if plaster takes time to dry. Had it happen a few times. Only use catnic these days. Usually cover with Dulux trade supermatt. Worst case scenario use zinsser bullseye stain block.

Casper stores it in his kilt

Toolstation gyproc extreme. Bought a roll of spider scrim off eBay. Stuck well and no fraying

Always use trisodium citrate without problems . Spoonful per bag of plaster. Gives approx 30mins extra setting time.

Can use once. Let it shrink then standard toupret filler and sand

Use toupret fibacryl filler. Let it shrink back then re fill and sand

Likely wall and ceiling edges not keyed.

Orange scrim from @Plasterers1StopShop Cheap enough and sticks 2/3/4 inch wide

Sbr on Amazon, everbuild £15.

Discuss with customer. Communication skills etc. Explain you want to give a fair price but need to earn a living. Maybe remove a section with them present. Time is money always. Your welcome

Depends on the type and condition of the ceilings. Should be able to use pva on it's own usually. Don't often feel the need to mix materials. Prep work is down to experience.

Dewalt battery 9ah Amazon around £150. Tax deductable

If you registered it with dewalt you will have a 3 year guarantee. Maybe needs servicing

You may be right but... You drop one and its wrecked or they get stolen? Never can have enough trowels. Always a couple that are broken in.

Wickes stock it near me but not had any bonding 60 or standard bonding lately at times. Used the 60 and found it to be good gear

Drinking Water is the easiest and cheapest thing you can do to help your health and wellbeing. A physio can help with suitable exercises for lower back. Heat is the best pain reliever. Having a strong inner core is essential.

It's not rust that causes the bleed through the plaster. Only seen rusty beads in a kitchen or bathroom that have been exposed to water or moisture directly over years.. Scraping beads once skimmed would need to be excessive to remove galvanized coating . Most likely just grease or oil on...

If stain/ bead shadow still shows after mist coat use zinsser bullseye stain block.

Take a look on Toolstation. Usually best prices.

No not at all. No problems reported with board finish only multi.

Not used sbr on internals. May have seen @Vincey mention this and @Olican . Interested to find out advantages of mixing with pva and using tacky or left to dry.

Use dirty water. Or mix a bit of plaster slurry before leaving home. Money saved equals more beer

Use board finish over pva without trouble. Small amount of trisodium citrate if needed to extend the setting time. Cheaper than multi also and a lot more predictable.

Welcome along to what? Been a forum member for a decade. Seen d*m**o and ******* come and go and now yourself. Third time lucky hay!

Ever build pva. Catnic beads. Dewalt radio. Knauf boards and coving. Gyproc extreme orange scrim. Fe Your not planning on still being here 6 months from now surely

More crap multi. Batch no. B3 08819. Bought from Wickes. Use by 27 July Got the lot in it, treacle clay and chewing gum. Barely fit for purpose.

If you don't want to buy too much as your not usually plastering try a small tub of bonding agent from wickes to provide a key on the pvc then a powdered filler such as toupret to fill.

Put titan bags into the search. Loads available.
