Ive been reading looooooooads on this site about 'flattening' the 1st coat,out of curiosity,i bought that golden trowel skimmin dvd an he does the same,but what happens when ur throwin 3 bag gauges on like me,an the 1st coat has gone in too much too flatten?i never mix a 2nd lot up to 2nd coat,i 1st coat wit 2 bags say,an 2nd coat with wots left in my tub.i did a 220 squared foot ceilin today,an it was the 1st time ever i had 2 mix fresh stuff to 2nd coat coz id ran out of stuff!!an it was horrible layin fresh stuff onto a 'gone in' 1st coat,tho it had gone in a bit like!! took me 25 mins to jus 1st coat the b*stard!
but goin back 2 what i was sayin,if u got time 2 flatten ur 1st coat,then u mus either move like lightenin or jus put on one bag?? i try an squeeze the 1st coat lines out wiv my 2nd coat,then flatten it,2 waters then a dry one.
