Your asking a question i always take them out then you can sleep fast a bo bos in bed

People think f**k it be ok scrimming down the wing but got to understand your going over a wooden bead back in the day that was the bead finished not ideal to go over

 

[Jason Mewis]

Always take them out, they’ll always crack..

 

[Jason Mewis]

Your customers probably think if you can’t be arsed to do it properly in the first place you aren’t going to come back and rectify.. hence the lack of comebacks

Because some people want straight angles why would you still want a fukin wooden bead stuck out from 1918 Victorian times

Always had cracks on wooden beads on fire breasts when over skimmed, after fixing bead and taping, so always pull them off now, along with a load of plaster...

Actually they are keeping the 20 inch coving and 20 inch skirting so might ask if they want to keep em.

PVA the bead first, bead on, scrim down both sides, bit of bonding on top of scrim then skim it. Never had a bead crack and I always say to the customer if it cracks let me know and I'll pop back and fix it.

why not not leave beads on form a v joint down it and do the job right

Spot on, its not like its hard to do. If the wood bead is dooked in to a brick corner and the customer isn't bothered I'll rip them out patch it in and stick skim on and skim it. If its wooden lath then I'll just replicate the original v joint, hate putting skim beads over wooden beads even scrimed.
