I mean use a poly float when trowelling up skim. No need, just no need.

 

[kebab king]

That depends Beddy,one day you will find a need, untill then you just have to keep learning.

 

[Nisus]

I know a bloke that uses 2 floats at the same time on skim! Weirdo :RpS_biggrin:

 

[kebab king]

Beddy thought he was right to use a float on skim, it was justa a GUT feeling.lol

 

[Nisus]

hey Beddy sorry mate for taking ages..... when going over artex some of the old guys used to use a float to put the second coat of skim up crosshatching, we just show it, the floats flat and it helps it go up a bit thicker, its not the be all and end all, comes out lovly though on deep patterns...cheers

 

[kebab king]

See Beddy, all you need to do is go on a course and you learn something.

 

[LesTurpin]
