had a job today were i was skimming half a wall and flashing it in at the end.. i PVAed the wall , was a bit thick but still let it dry for about 15mins then started skimming it.. every time i tryed to put pressure on the end to flash it in it teared away and ripped up so bad i couldn't do the job so i scrapred it all off again and used bond it on the wall and have to go back again! some time when flashing into some walls it does this but not on others?
 
yea was a pinted walls a lil bit silky 2.. but thing is with bond it u have 2 wait 4 it and most patch work is usually done on the day!.. plus with bondit the grit gets in the way of smooth edges?
 
Bond it for feathering in ??
Just use watered down pva like a milky mix & let it dry.
How to feather it into painted wall, once plaster is applied use toe of trowel or to run down join to smooth off edge then leave it & concentrate on rest of area, when it's ready for trowelling run a wet brush up join & trowel out onto painted area & leave the join till final trowel.
The more you play with it the more chance it'll blister up or tear, especially if the pva is too thick & on silk.
Bond it's no good for patching you'll still need to go past the bond it to feather it in so you'll still need to pva edge!
;)
 
thanks 4 the tips mate but I'm quite good at fading in usually, but i always fade in rather than patch the edges of the area.. i over go the area by at least 5"-8"

Sounds to me oasis that your rushing or trying to take short cuts ie thicker pva you will learn in time to do the job proper and it will save you going back. Im not having a dig but a lot of your last posts you are putting work right coz your trying to do too much, setting yourself deadlines and its all catching up so your rushing, only my observations so dont take it personally. :)

Anyway we can post what we want on here ok!

come here little fishy lol and i can guess who pm,d you without doubt, i dont bother lookin at your links to youtube and your not the only one i never said you were i said im sick of every thread turning into a link to youtube :) you can post what you want like i can aswell, dont take it personnal, maybe you should ask danny to open up another section so you and your mates can post as many links to youtube as you like and to be honest the mods should of sorted this thread coz it was answered by me on the second post but has gone off the rails as usuall but to be honest with not as many youtube links :)

Nisus give your head a shake and stop taking it personnal :-*
 
i have to agree with flynny (for once!) most posts seem to end up having a completely irrelevant youtube link in it. the jukebox section is understandable. and the machine section. but not all the time boys! i admit i post a bit off youtube but mainly in the sections where people arent relying on answers to help with their jobs.

Flynnymans not a popular boy is he? Not many like him on here do they.
He sounds a bit jealous to me maybe because he's got no friends :-\

I used to think you were sound flynnyman but to be honest pal you sound like a complete a.hole just lately!

Sorry bud just my opinion :)

Well i am sorry to hear that my friend i thought i was havin a bit of banter but maybe it upsets people?

I didnt realise i was being an ashole just lately i thought i was like that always ;)
The thing is i maybe comment when others think "na im not saying anything coz that wont make me popular" or "i will wait till someone else says something before i will". Ive looked through my last few posts and cant see where i am going wrong but maybe thats my problem?
I think i give good and honest advice but maybe coz i dont answer all the simple stuff ie why is my skimming setting too quick? my posts that i do are up there for critisism?
Some posts on here are very basic and have been answered a lot of times so sometimes the answer to these questions is usually sarcastic and i dont mean just from meso maybe thats what makes me look bad?
I wouldnt go as far as to say not many like me on here well atleast i hope not :) Ive posted on here for a while and to be honest i dont think there is one person on here i dont like ive maybe had a few disagreements in the past but thats coz they dont really understand my loving nature :) so on that note PLEASE like me xxxxxx
