good evening, i have recently baught an old bungalow and im trying to do as much work as i can myself,i am ok at plastering walls to a paintable standard that i am happy with as i went on a 6 week plastering course in 2011.
the problem i have is when i plaster ceilings i seem to get marks from my trowel and struggle to get all the water marks or fat as my dad calls it this is especially a problem in the middle areas of the cielings ie;near the cieling roses, this is very frustrating as i dont have this problem with walls as when i wet it i bring my trowel down from the cieling in one continuous motion but with cielings i seem to just move the "fat" around could anyone give me any tips please thanks in advance Nina
