can you not find a merchant in the uk who will send you some by the pallet .....
sure its not going to be cheap though !!
yeah it would be a bit pricey theres a ex pommy over here in sydney i think making a skim even called it multi finish but it goes off quick i did a wall up in darwin it was 5 m2 and was troweled up and set in 45mins by the time i got the first coat on it was ready to top.finishes the same but its hard work.
Can you not slow the set down with additives
yeah ive tried cream of tarter works for a bit but it starts to peel off when you trowel it up?its over 30deg everyday in darwin ive tried ice cold water too.
Your always goint to be up against it with the heat, Placo finish is alright but in Spain nowadays they seem to be only using one coat machined or hand, put it on a bit thick it gives you the time.

have a look at this - Knauf MP75 Projection Plaster - Knauf Drywall
where are you based? maybe we can sort out someone to contact you..... even if your in Aus
Your probably right - Plasters are not really my thing.....
There are applications for MP75 - as well as all the other plasters out there....
Is it not all about giving the finish required for the job, at the price that is right?
Scissors that film is the biggest pile of crap ever. I'm not for one minute saying that MP75 isn't faster than F&S but by choosing the slowest messiest plasterers that could be found doesn't make MP75 look good but makes any decent spread watching that vid think that you're trying to pull the wool over their eyes. Also there is no way that the finish is anywhere near a good as can be achieved with F&S.[/QUOTEyou just ain't seen it done right Andy you can get just as good a finish as f and s

I stand corrected. To be fair Gary I've only seen it done by Stu and Paul and even Stu said it wasn't as good a F&S or suitable for domestic housing, so I just took his word for it.
I still think that vids crap. It might have been a bit more realistic if say, you and your mate were on the other end of the wall or perhaps even someone spraying the Hardwall on.

the finish is a bit grittier unless you want to trowel it to death. but if its flat with no holes then its all the same. iv used it on a bit of domestic as well as a fair bit of commercial and once painted ud never know what plaster was used.
