[pristineplastering]

Do you mean a bottle cove down to a picture rail ,ie vertically, or just a curved wall horizontally Addict ??

 

[christ]

didnt think of that....... horizontally i think

 

[church]

Do you mean concave or convex? convex is >( and concave is >) shown as vertical of course..... good a ?

 

[christ]

concave and convex..... ha ha

 

[church]

Vertical or horizonal curve

 

[christ]

horizonal curve ;D

 

[church]

Side to side passes and trowel horizonally

 

[christ]

so u apply the plaster side to side rather than up and down

 

[Gibbo]

yep

 

[chunkyboy]

just follow the curve always goin the same way

 

[christ]
