Chris, with your 1-coating, do you sling a bit of muck on all the joints before you start skimming?

I'm a 2-coater - just asking out of curiousity.

Just realised we may have misunderstood each other, earlier.

I did mean same mix, but do you run round and fill the joints with it first, and then double-back and skim the entire room? I'm just trying to understand how you (reliably) avoid getting caught out with occasional hollows on some of the joints.
