if its never been damp be fine buy1 bag off him test it for setting time
that's anew word for me chives /im guesing chasings or raggles as known in scotland
I like the gyproc joint finish in the red bag have 30 odd bags in workshop fell off back of a wagon 3years ago sets in about 5 minutes over fill patch then scrape back also do all my fibrous screw holes anb mitres with it same colour to
Anything that works I say, does it hang about long enough for coating the jute scrim when filling joints and mitres?
just about
That surprises me, it was the first coat when tape and joining, before easy fill became first, second and if needed third coat
bg stuff what era
Yes big stuff in the eighties
must have been south of the border [down mexico way]
we where always told the pink came from down south ours always grey up inlancashire pink was always a treat
Ours never really turned to pink until the birth of hardwall then after that it gradually changed to pink but we use to think it was pink up north all the time
afraid not in Lancashire we were told we only got when there was a breakdown at local bg works they said it came from down south carlite finish was a good material /started to clean up that shighthole workshop today meat to be outside but pissing down
I liked carlite finish too and board finish but the board finish seemed different from today’s shite. We used bonding sixty today and to be honest I thought it was like the bonding from years ago when if you didn’t cut your angles out quick enough they went hard as f**k and you had to clean your shovel and mixing tray often otherwise you ended up running a brick with water over your shovel to get the stuff off, happy days
remember your flat brush if u left it overnight in water bucket swelled 3 times its size
I still use a seven inch flat brush now, have to buy them now though, years ago we used to scrounge the painters old ones
gone down to a 4 inch don't put much water on multi gives a nicer look when fully dry
never used a rubbing up float up float on bonding for years get it as flat as poss then take a bristle out of a nylon yard brush between thumb and forefinger and use a circular movement to mark it
That’s a new one for me, I sometimes use a scratcher in circular movements if it’s a small bit and can’t be bothered to go to the van
try it I bet u will stay with it it looks good to
I will do that but what about if it’s a room I’ve floated would you still do the same?
yes once you have mastered it you wont go back to any other way
Don't know if it'll be any good but I've used some s**t stuff in my time just run faster
Used easy fill the other day on dry stuff ok but cut it off don't sand where a mask
