I'm not a fan of plastic

but pulled me out the shiit a few times


especially on stair winders

plastics have their place

Blebbing like a b*****d or am I misreading that last pic?

You didn't even bother taking the sockets off...
I'd stick to sites. Nothing to go around and no chance of f**k**g anything up

Are you on about these or Speedskim?

I've never used one, personally, but I recall that the Nela Max / Ox Semi-Flex had some controversy surrounding them for a while. The design always seemed a bit odd to me, what with the centre of it being slightly concave. Seemed like it might slightly increase the risk of exerting a narrow area of pressure onto the plaster, which I suppose might encourage ripples, if used too early in the set. That's only a guess - I'm not stating it as a fact.








Long old thread about plastic trowels, a while back:

Plastic trowels!!!!!

Phhhh piss & wind!!! Ok serious question am i missing a trick???? Had a lad on an extension this week that we couldnt get to for a builder. Called in yesterday expecting the usual disappointment. Flawless, best work ive see in a long time tbh, noticed on the wibdow sill 2 very worn in plastic...

Seems a few members experimented for a while with different franken-plazis, but then all went quiet.

You're taking too long on the thread mate. Consider your actions.

That was the one I gave away,I can see the advantage on wear and tear on the arms etc
But just didn’t warrant it on my jobs,it’s like the time old question too…sponge or not to sponge,horses for courses…but I love a sponge..,super flex and trowel for me.

You should only use a sponge to wash your motor

You're absolutely right. Guilty as charged. Had a few wines in front of the telly last night and did get a bit over-talkative with the keyboard
