heres some pics of a house im working on in Hale. There are 2 different shaped ceilings that have 2 rafaello base coats and 2 mother of pearl top coats and sealed with lacquer. My camera has played funny bugger with the colours in the pics though so when the house is complete i will get some good finished pics

yes and no. its more high end stuff. House im working in is worth 6-8 million the foreman tells me. Lots of work out there you just have to find it. commercially you will get it in bars, clubs restaurants etc. Domestically its more people with lots of money
 
looks excellent mate, ive done a bit with oikos gear seams to work well. have you done any coccio work, that gives a nice finish. have you tired there trowels ive got a couple very sharp, looks like your using a spatula must work well looking at the pics.
 
Used watins lux satin lacquer. Bluebells recommedation for the finish used. I use an oikos trowel just had to use a spat to get in above the coving where a trowel wont fit. Also use spat for putting small edge payterns in the coats. Using phone to type this but will put some more pics on tonight of the ottocento we got done today. looks lovely

Whitefield, Manchester. There was a thread on here about the course training including pics of sample boards you learn and come away with but sadly for reasons unknown it has been removed. If your interested just google venetian plaster training manchester and there is only one place that comes up
