Yeah I did a job few weeks back with 70mm insulated plasterboard! Every board was bowed side to side so when I came to skim I had to level out the joins!! Fuckiing hate those boards! Next time I do a job with them I'm gonna charge a lot more.

its when they stick the insulation to the boards to soon, it shrinks and warps the board

We had a whole pallet bowed a couple of years back. Ended up slicing the backs in 12" squares to allow it to flatten again.

We used to use 1 in each corner and one in the middle but it needs to set first,

That is true. It can be a pain trying to get the whip out of a warped board. It is time consuming. I've wedged the deadman aginst them in the past with a scaf board nailed across just trying to get them in aligment. And then the bottom f the board springs. That non expanding adhesive, the one that expands lol, is the same. It will push them out all over

Use Thermaline Super. It's a different insulation which is less prone to warping.

Did an old school house living room and mezzanine a few months ago with 90mm Super. It was 60 odd pounds a sheet. Used 45 boards.

Thermaline boards are always brilliant, sometimes the insulation overlaps the edge of the plasterboard which proper cocks me off.

Pretty easy with a handsaw too. :RpS_biggrin:

 

[user__removed]

Yeh circular saw all day long attached to extractor or cut outside!

 

[jesssop]

Just cut it foam side with a snap off blade knife

 

[user__removed]

Can't see that working with the thicker stuff mate. I'd be well impressed if you can cut it perfect straight that way.

 

[Danny]

I used a hand saw... but what a ballache :-(

 

[user__removed]

A handsaw with the thinner stuff is a pain, it seems to pinch all the while.
