45 degree externals

[lucius]

Got some 45 degree reveals to skim on a conservatory always used to do them freehand but looking for an easier way am thinking of using mesh thincoat beads as i think the may splay out enough anyone got any ideas?

 

[spunky]

Can't you use a stop bead?

 

[bubbles65]

Yep, the spunksters right...............did I just say that?:RpS_crying:

Them external plastic beads have a bit more give I mean angle bead.

 

[rockhardsolidplastering]

skim stop bead cant get much easier than that

 

[lucius]

Cheers, stop bead it is then.

stick with the mesh skim beads they do flatten out and dont crack as easy as skim stop beads just pull it straight with some drywall or finish prior to skimmin.

My thoughts are the same as you Flynn, i thought i could get the mesh beads tight enough especialy stapeling them.

stop beads for me, does the job fine

i have used a 45degree thincoat angle bead i think it was catnic that made em, but to be honest it has to be bang on 45 degrees for them to be easy to use lol

sto beads are by far quicker just have to make sure they are straight as they are flimsy as fcuk lol

 

[lucius]

It is bang 45 degree Olly i done the brickwork Lol but its gonna be stop bead as Wickes are just round the corner and thats all they got.

Surely you mean 135 degrees external angles :RpS_wink:

 

[nelly]

If the joints arnt too tight you can use a normal skim bead by pushing one flange in the slot.........................................sounds a bit lezzer porno that does

 

[lucius]

Surely you mean 135 degrees external angles :RpS_wink:

Yeah :RpS_wink:

stop beads all day long , as already said , the other beads have to go on the exact angle or they wont look right , had this problem on a job recently
