It may suck pretty quick on the hardwall and old plaster but soon as you 2nd coat and flatten down it all settles nicely

if you have to pva high suction parts first might as well just pva itall and just use multi and keep the money you save

Multi can still pull in quick when used with pva on some surfaces as you know. Pva then unifinish works well on high suction.

Used some unifinish this week for the first time in a year over very medium suction walls and an artex ceiling. It was lovely gear to use and because i scoop out of a bucket a lot was nice and workable for ages so i could have my wank breaks etc.
If i could get it at £6.50 that @theplasterman is getting it then i would use it more often, i still love micro though

BG have upped the shelf life of the skim in ireland to 6 months, they need to do it with unifinish.

No they dont stock it but you can get how many bags you want or a pallet which is 28 bags. They wernt doing much with the price 12 months ago, i paid £280 for the pallet and had no comebacks on any walls or ceilings i used them on.

A builder brought us in two bags a couple of weeks ago that were four months old and there was'nt a bother on them.

Got to take my hat off to u bud...the only way to get use to using unifinish is to just go for it and find it's and your limit.so many people just don't have the balls to give something new a go.100% no issue with adhesion (people can't slate it for that)..price is now the issue ..why merchants charge so much for it is beyond me..thats why I big up sig at least they are trying to sell it instead of not giving a #### if it does or not ...my rant over

Called crap marketingThe price will come down I am sure that what the merchants are doing is going in high and then slowly dropping it to see where they can charge the most for
There is a name for what they do just can't remember what it is

Hi guys used uni on Friday for first time. Didn't pva at all
First coat pulled in fast on the hardwall area but after applying the second coat things looked good.
After about 10 min it was starting to set different in areas of the wall.
Hardwall area going off quick, top part wasn't to bad but the bottom area took ages. I felt I was troweling the wall in sections.
This was it finished
