Skim this?

this is an archway with this bullnose cast in to it and it has a v shape channel running parallel. This customer wants to keep both the bullnose and the v shape channel. So is the only option to feather up the the channel when I skim? What would you do?

 

[johniosaif]

You could tape over it.

Leg it

just skim up to the v after youve done a coat and a trowel just run your margin brush round the inside of the v keeping it clean and neat

For the less complicated way do as @johniosaif says with tape but peel off before it sets too hard as it the tape will just rip and make a mess of your arris ! I'd freehand but that's just me depends on your experience!?? :RpS_confused:

It's a staff bead.

Keep it. Skim up to it then run a small tool thru the groove.

 

[mikeadams1985]

And it normally would have a 'leg' on the verticsl do probably been skimmed or hacked of previously

I go for mike's - feather Skim from the leg and clean off with small tool like you plaster from skirting

Thought you might

Id brush in and sponge as i go. Using tape youl have a 2mm edge

 

[Gibbo]

Whats a margin brush ?

 

[Jace]

just a little detail brush
i use it for when im doing reveals and skirtings everytime ive done a phase like a trowel or laid some on i run round the edges very lightly just to keep all the window frames and skirts ect clean so that when im done i am done dont need to do any cleaning just pack up tools sweep up and go

 

[joet]

Done it today, went well apart from pissing around with the bullnose corners. Taped it and just feathered in and it looks good. Cheers lads.

 

[Jace]
