Hello Chaps,

been skimming ceilings and I think they were just alittle tooo big for just me no labourer I felt I was always trying to catch up.

around 25m2 on board but around 2.7m high really awkward and my arms want to fall off!!

They turned out ok though, but never again....lol

that extra foot really makes a massive difference dont it?? the sweeps a lot shorter...
25 on a cieling is about the most ill have a go at on my own, gotta phyche myself up for it too...
plenty of pva is the answer, ive even pva'd board in that situation before and used multi, it just gives you that few minutes to get the feeling back in your arm and take a swig of your tea... ;D
