That’s normal John, lucky you didn’t got caught on a big job. It needs paying attention mate and that comes with practice. Now you understand my frustration when someone comes on here and heil him self as a god , based on one feckin picture that looks like a mirror. And just for the record...... that won’t settle

One coating takes more skill than two coating as mad as that sounds

I don't hail myself as a god, I've been asked a few questions and given answers.
I stand by what Ive said, you can one coat (two out the same bucket) just as good onto plasterboard.
The wizard part of my name username anyone could see is a joke

Just for the record, that wall I posted earlier did "settle". I got paid for it the following Friday without any pulls.

One coating with the same gear out the bucket is harder and will need you to stay on top of it more than two coating with seperate mixes does
only a idiot would claim otherwise.

How do you tackle the bigger gauges doing one coat just interested diff methods i cant seem to grasp it

There's alot to do it but am basically dropping back and speed skimming areas making sure everywhere is as flat as possible whilst still wet so theirs less stress on the body and less stress in general, signed the wizard.

If I can't get a 600mm speed skim on it, I leave entire areas for other people to finish, I make sure I am always hitting the big walls. I've been known to go in the night before and write my name in pva on every wall I want.

So when you put more gear on even if it's same mix where does it go

Same mix = 1 coat
Because you’re only laying it all down its Not a fresh coat on top.
Fresh mix = 2 coats
Get it geez?

It goes on the wall but both mixing are going off at the same rate biggest probelm I have is laying gear on that has gone off more than what's on the walls you end up pulling areas

Do you fellas agree with the ban on 14 bag rolling gauges, not happy with it meself but suppose working that hard can kill certain fellas it's understandable.
