Mine came supplied with the flexi and I got the plazzy extra but found that the flexi was just as good for flattening render and base coats as a hard blade, just gotta hold it different. Works for me bud :)

I been using the eze with a plazzy blde for some time now and there is no easier way to get a perfect shiny finish. Straight out of the packet it pulls and fluffs up the finish but after a rub down on dry fresh plaster to smooth the edge it glides over wet multi without leaving any stripes and...

This is sooze, she has just completed the plastering element of skill build and won! Massive congratulations to her for all the hard work and dedication she has put in to achieve her goals! Considering she only started in september this is a great achievement for her and just goes yo show what a...

Should have spaced the pics really *rolls eyes* danny can I have my edit button back please

Progressing very well considering only 3 months ago she didnt know which end of the trowel to hold (metaphor dear ;) )

Just logged on and got a pop up saying the forum supports tapatalk now? Did the upgrage through playstore but it seems we dont. Is it just a rogue ad or has my sgs2 now got aids?

Yea I noticed that. I think there was a free period but my brain was pickled during that time. 2 quid aint alot if you are on all the time

Anyone tried this? Cant be arsed to change it or fix it.

Used to use an 18x5 mt but it went a bit banana so back to the 14x5 mt ss then finish with eze spat

Blue porridge is what we call blue grit or any of the other varietys out there

Very sandy, dont know if its always like that as I always use multi and none of my locals stock knauf

I got an eze on order now to see how it compares, I like the idea of replaceable blades instead of another 50 notes when I drop it

If it comes down im not bothered.....its my own bathroom lol

Only used the trowel to get it on, the rest was done with a supaflex. Guess im just lucky eh :rolleyes)

I used vista. If you dont order for a while you get loads of stuff free and discounts

All wrong I kicked its ass :D Bathroom ceiling nailed, I did only manage to get 1 wet one over it before the fat went hard on the edge of the bucket though but its flat and shiny :)

Just grabbed a bag of boardy from my local tp dirt cheap because its april 2011...... Place your bets lads, will it own me or not....who knows lol

A wee baby. Pva it and get everything ready to go before you mix. Dont overmix and maybe mix in 2 halves, smaller buckets of fresh gear go off one after another which will save you chasing one mix going off all at once. The ceiling me and a mate done ate 6.5 bags of multi.

Yes very much so, before all this 2 week course bollox everyone was site trained. I was site trained and so are many others on here I imagine.

How big os this ceiling? Me and a mate covered a 50m2 ceiling this week, first coat flat, second coat flatter then went over it with a spat twice. Shiny and flat with plenty of fag breaks in between. If its on board then you can always pva first to help you out a bit. College wont teach you how...

He he :RpS_lol: another chancer surfaces. First coat skim with broken up doritos to give a good key for the second coat which I like to add some pot noodle, any flavor is good but I prefer the chinese one. Save the sauce sachet though and add it to the splash water for trowelling up, gives a...

I would personally wash em down with sugar soap then blue porridge the lot mate, that out to sort it

Just use it im sure it will be fine. take an oilstone or diamond file to it to remove any machine marks though. once done learn to look after your trowel properly, it is afterall your money maker

2 coats of sbr, ladder against stair head wall with plank across to the stairs and get stuck in. If it goes too far before you finished then you got no hope as the sbr will hold it off for ages. I done one yesterday with a couple of small walls to make up the set.

AQUAPANEL!!! That should get Richard lords spider sense going mental and he will arrive so tell of suitable plasterboard gaps :RpS_thumbsup:

Ive always put it over s sc coat then sandwiched with another sc to stop it condensating.

A couple of the other forums I use dropped tapatalk, something about the money involved I think. They did however release an app instead which could be a viable option Danny.

River monsters done an episode on the pacu and what it has been reported to have done around its native amazon river. Nasty nashers and some real power to put behind them aswell, they are supposed to be veggies with the teeth used to bust open hard nutshells and fruit seeds but are slowly taking...

And still nothings changed.....

Dont bother they will all fail. As said batton and screw (battons and daughter........and mother in law, nothing like a sportsmans double) if he still wont listen then there is only one answer you can safely get on here and thats write peado on his house and s**t on the doorstep:RpS_thumbup:

I've had a couple of bags with small bits of grit in it, looks like tiny bits of limestone. The gear aint setting any quicker which is a good job as im spending most of my time picking fkin stones outta my sets. Mine were from bristol

I get mine foc from a factory dealing in glue, last around a year each and can get enough in a week to last until I retire lol

Spend the dosh and get the bosch. Last you years.

Run

The clump appears to be old fibre boards rather than anything else, if asbestos is present on your ceiling in clumps like that then you have major issues lol. The asbestos in artex is minimal so no worth worrying about. A. Just let the plasterer get on and do the job and not fuss over nothing...

Flat out thanks Danny, 6days a week and more if I could manage a beerless week

Brewers or crown decorators on a more serious note :)

Halfords, daughter has some on her bike

Tried it numerous times and always have to reduce it down on the top or bottom of the cut (cant remember which) cove is in the right position as far as im aware malc. just cant get on with it

Is that the wonder mitre? They are shite......well mine is anyway

:RpS_scared:

Nudefest down newquay soon, some good pervin to be had there by the brave lol

Doh im not on facebook but the profile pic aint to shabby:RpS_cool:

Best not piss this one off lads, girls got fire in her belly :flapper: give as good as you get and a load more is always the best option :)

Just skim it bollox to bonding it, the round conduit has no flex so it shouldn't crack. Feather it out a foot or so either side with skim. Job done

Good choice, better to be safe than sorry. Asbestosis is not a nice way to go. Back to the trowel, stick with a stainless marshalltown 14" permashape, its the bit that earns the money so requires the best. Other bits would be a nice lightweight hawk like the marshalltown one, mixing buckets...

They are a bit backward up there and cant understand the word hawk. Don't forget asbestos awareness, you would be surprised where that **** is. Old artex has some although not as potent as the spray on fire retardant. Good luck :)

The bosch also has 2 speed but the difference is it hits full speed straight away but has a servo to slow things down if needed. The ones with the silly speed wheel that take a while to spin up to full speed are irritating for me.
