[bubbles65]

Just get mad with it man, what are you a tiler or something :-0

 

[jamesh271]

I had same with mine.. mainly due because I wasnt cleaning it properly after use...

Smashed it to bits to start with but soaked it in hot water for a bit n it came out.... eventually!!!

 

[raggles]

leave it in a water butt over night or pour some boiling water over it

 

[Arti]

I had the same bother............just used a tapometer





You need to soak it in warm water for an hour...................according to Scott

 

[danconnordh9]

Its having a bath... il let u knw how it wrks

 

[Arti]

You should take the blade out every couple of weeks to clean it................Scott told me about soaking it in water after i smashed fu@k out of the blade....................:rolleyes)

[cassie]

dont have a problem with my blades..ie. its in the garage and stays there..lol...

 

[Hutton]

Does anyone take the edges off their speedskim and how much you curve it, no matter how far I take it off it leaves lines when flattening

 

[jesssop]

try holding it off center or put more pressure on one side like your troweling up

 

[Hutton]

Cheers mate will give that a shot

 

[cheese]

gave mine a good coat of brick acid and a stiff brush, works a treat! I love my speed skim best thing since electric whisks!

 

[Fatarm]

Why brick acid?:RpS_unsure:

 

[porky]

Careful with brick acid coz after plaster or mortar it next favourite thing is aluminium, left my Ryobi whisk in it over night and next day no head on the end of the shaft, just black sludge in the bucket, did the same to the tang on my refina pipe trowel, anyone tried that calgon stuff that you put in kettles etc in hard water areas, should work on plaster residue.

The only mistake u made, was to put it on the bin, not in.
