I'm pretty sure that they already sold plastic trowels when I used that Spray Finish shite.

I’d never really had a bad batch and secretly thought you were all just a bunch of whiney bitches for aaaaaaages. But I nearly always use BF.
Then I picked up multi because couldn’t be arsed to wait for them to bring a pallet of board down and f**k me did I have a couple of frustrating days. It hung and hung and hung. Teared. Then it dried patchy and looked s**t and felt rough/powdery to touch.
So my bad for thinking you’re all old grouchy blokes with a flair for hyperbole! God knows where I got that notion from!

All this talk of "grit at the bottom of the bucket" puzzles me greatly.
When plaster was decent, all those many years ago, it was 100% coarser than it is now and always left plenty of grit at the bottom of the bucket. I'm not talking about large bits of grit that are a problem, it was just generally coarser.
This all changed when Multifinish was released as it had to replace Carlite Finish, which was capable of dealing with the high suction of Browing. Carlite Finish was always known for showing up all the water marks and drying out very much how multi does now. And I'll tell you now that no spread back then would have chosen to use the slimey, snotty (sound familiar) Carlite Finish on anything other than a high auction background. If you use multi over Hardwall it works absolutely lovely.
IMHO Multifinish has gotten even finer over the years, making it even worse to use on low/medium suction backgrounds.
Now here's the bit that baffles me most; BG have at some point decided to make Board Finish finer than in the past, this can, IMO, only be for financial reasons.
So in summary, 90%+ of plastering work carried out is on new board, PVA or a grit type product, all low to medium suction (at best) and yet the plaster we have to use is best suited to high suction backgrounds.
@The Apprentice @BritishGypsum any comebacks to my thoughts?

Abit of job satisfaction would be nice. Customers notice drop in quality too, was working for a regular kitchen fitter Monday, he walked in as I'd almost finished and gave it a quizzical look, and I said yeah I have issues today. He was worried if it would paint up alright as it's a high end kitchen and fussy customer, I couldn't really guarantee it, streaky as f**k

Thing is Andy that when I’ve used pure finish and unifinish they have both been consistently good to use and finish.

No the odds are exactly the same but don’t tell the crew that.
1 bet win £10 @ 10/1 = £110
6 people put £10 each. 1 bet win £60 @ 10/1 = £660
£660 / 6 people = £110 each.
Exactly the same just more horny with more people, like an orgy.
