Any pictures of the work you did with it ?Used it a few time not to impressed with it bits suck in and bits stay wet . Can't beat a good two cost pva of febgrit blue ..
I'm gullible. I love it. Glossy artex ceiling. Straight on with uni and top coat multi. No f**k**g about waiting for pva to pick up. It's knowing when to use it and when not too. And believe me I'm no big business apologist I just think it's a great product for certain jobs.Biggest over priced overrated gimmick ive ever seen. That vid is also a shocking example for promotion, fat bloke sweating his knackers off trying to stay on top of it, first trowel onwards with plastic, pulling wet corners out with plastic. If the suction is to great apply a weak PVA !!! " Why not just PVA in the first place " then do it in Multi... Add a 3rd coat !!!
Has anyone been gullible enough to get sucked into this garbage ?
Small artex ceilings are fine but a big hit and its s**t and over pricedI'm gullible. I love it. Glossy artex ceiling. Straight on with uni and top coat multi.

No its all been painted now and the customer is happy but I worked my ass off .Any pictures of the work you did with it ?
Gullible lol
Have you ever used a bag ?
Agree that suggesting to pva if suction too high is a nonsense. I just ignore advice like that and do my own thing with it. Sometimes on a big artex ceiling it's nice to have a product that doesn't set as fast as multi, I sometimes put a small glug of pva in first coat for a really long set time if I'm starving and need to pop to the shop or price a job.Haha wondered how long before you took the bait
My point was this, the video promotes a product and prides itself on the fact that you don't need to glue up, it then states later in the film that if the suction is to high lightly PVA the walls or put a third coat on !! How can they charge you more for something, when sometimes you still need to PVA or put a third coat on ! They make out that it saves loads of time when in fact it doesn't actually take that long to glue a wall up does it.
In all fairness if a wall was really high in suction i could probably lightly PVA and 3 coat with Multi and stay on top of it.
How dare you say uni is rubbishBiggest over priced overrated gimmick ive ever seen.

No don't see the point.U tried it yet @flynnyman
If you ever do,,,,,,use a nela super flex from start to finish,,,,crap trowel with crap plaster.No don't see the point.
Thats the best review of the product I have seen.Fine/brilliant on silkpaint
Mat paint can't always control the suction
Everything else not fit for purpose
Bought 20 bags went from loving to despiseing it and everything in between depending on substrate.
Once you realise it doesn't work on all substrates kind of took the shine off when needing to PVA anyway for summet that's more than double price of multi!.
Gullible lol
Have you ever used a bag ?
Where u been zombie? Ive missed ur rants lol..
I think they should get rid of multie and just have uni and at the same price . The thing with the Uni is you may have to pva so no point in buying it, but if there was the choice to not pva and that's what the plaster did it would give the plasterer the choice and also benefit the plasterer.Never used it and cant c me ever using it tbh its just 2 expensive and I cant justify in passing the cost on to clients because i cnt be arsed pva ing which ive said b4..there either need to put it on sale for say £1 more than multi or just get rid of it so there can stop putting all the out of date stuff in the multi lol..
Ye it is pointless wen there say u may need to give a tight coat of pva..it either needs 0% pva on all backgrounds no matter wat or do away with itI think they should get rid of multie and just have uni and at the same price .

Fair play..suppose If ur in clemo mode last thing u wana do is type about it aswellLol...tbh kitchy I've either not logged on or logged on and just seen nowt I can be arsed to post about for past god knows how long!!!
Been in a real plastering downer for last 12 month or so can't bear to get up to go to work never mind type about it at night after work!!!
Hope your well fela!!!
If it's dry, pva and multi. If it's glossy uni. Honestly don't see the issue.Ye it is pointless wen there say u may need to give a tight coat of pva..it either needs 0% pva on all backgrounds no matter wat or do away with it
U are yankin chains. Until u try uni at least 3 times then make a decision on plaster.I think they should get rid of multie and just have uni and at the same price .

C if that's good for you.Said it before,I have my options open in the back of my van I have uni and multi.most jobs I have seen before I go but can decide to swap up what I use.
Might use uni on the low suction or uni with multi on top or pva and then use multi or uni.Traditional plasterer ways always have it in there heads that first thing you do is walk in and pva all the room and then your ready to roll maybe that's where we are different.I decide what I don't have to pva , bang my gear on and then pva the areas if I think they need it.
Decide what I use when I get there and how my day goes, that's how to use it.
Nothing wrong with 3 coats either takes no time at all if you have it mixed up and that is what brings it under control if it is drying fast. And talking of fast if you want a quick 1 hour mix use unifinish on high suction bang a coat on and lay in with the same gear flatten off quick time ...jobs a good un.
Not expecting many to agree but that's how I use it.
Three coats ..!! F@@k that I'll stick to renderingSaid it before,I have my options open in the back of my van I have uni and multi.most jobs I have seen before I go but can decide to swap up what I use.

Whats that about, multi on top of uni.Said it before,I have my options open in the back of my van I have uni and multi.most jobs I have seen before I go but can decide to swap up what I use.

It is what it is bud , many time people have got there knickers in a twist on unifinish needing 3 coats but fact is even on normal re skim of older properties sometimes walls need 3 coats to sort out the wall.Three coats ..!! F@@k that I'll stick to rendering
This is what I saying donzo it's another option if it's all in the van.Whats that about, multi on top of uni.
