Hi
I'm a DIY plasterer. I have recently rendered a room recently then applied a skim of plaster. The adhesion of both to the wall is excellent and the final finish of the plaster is flat. However I cannot get a perfect polished finish. When it dries there are always imperfections across the work. I have tried finishing with a thicker and a thinner mix. After I polish, but when it dries the finished result is not as good as I hoped. I'm obviously doing something wrong, so any tips would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance
