MP Finish Kanuf

[Basher]

Has anyone used this? It says spray it on, on the bag but are gaffer makes us hand apply it! Where struggling to get a good finish all are work is bond chasers and re-skim any advice would be great!

 

[southernmonkey]

you spray it on with a ritmo but you can hand apply it , don't over trowel it otherwise you just make hard work for yourself

Also is it 2 coat you give it or 1 as surely with spray its a onner!

with spray you get a good 3mm on with one hit with towel i would give it 2 coats its lovely stuff just got to get used to it thats all

I have used it all week i dont get how you can call it lovely, what is the method you use to apply this kev? i have tried the way i have been taught with board and multi which is 1st coat, 2nd coat dry trowel wet trowel if need be, another one, then cross trowel and this way dont seem to get as gd a finish as bg finishes i have even bought and used a sponge float see if that done anything and it didnt!!!! Everything looks good oncee painted but just finding it hard to use!

 

[kevmc]

just do what your doing but leave a bit longer between trowels and dont use as much water

one coat it , i found it find but like kev said, dont play with it.

When i dont wet it, the 2nd coat looks like it peels away from the 1st???

your leaving it to long between coats

2nd and 3rd flick try plastic trowel, after 30 yrs of mt i tried a plazzy and stood bk in amazement ! worked a treat

Knauf plasters are great, take a little getting used to but I now prefer them to BG.
