[gdplastering]

What's better 2 massive hits or 3 smaller hits?

 

[jesssop]

2 small hits

 

[stuart23]

One small hit for same price as two massive ones for me.

What's better 2 massive hits or 3 smaller hits?

3 smaller every time so long as it doesn't make the day longer.

if 2 coating always nice if you can roll bits of the sets ie use 2nd coat gear to pick off the 1st coat of next set...

ie stagger where poss...not always poss but defo helps here and there!:RpS_thumbup:

 

[irish_spread]

My mrs reckons 1 massive one is better than 2 small Flynny ones :RpS_thumbup:

[jesssop]

there's only one way to find out!!!! FIGHT!!!!!!!!!!

one big fight or two little ones?

 

[beddy]

2 bigger hits. **** doing small hits and sitting round waiting. Get it on.

 

[User___removed]

2 big all day

 

[zombie]

As said staggered sets!

Not the rushing round of big sets or waiting round of small sets.

Always troweling up wet gear and totally in control!:RpS_thumbup:

I just need to figure out how to do em now!:RpS_blushing:

 

[jimmya78]

2 sets per day for me. I try to do an average size room say 14x14 including the lid in a day and a morning nowadays. Gone are the days of getting it done in a day for me. Just charge for 2 days and take my time instead of rushing and going home carrying my nuts in a barrow!

 

[Olican]

Depends on job, on new build always 2 big sets. Sometimes too many bits and tits so have to do 3

 

[scottie5]

3 massive gauges are best, just keep throwing it on till your sweating like a rapist,

[church]

Being self/employed in this business is all about doing the very best job you can do , being clean tidy , polite and professional, building up a great reputation and earning good money without killing yourself or damaging your body , anything else dont make sense to me .

 

[casplas]

whatever job requires to be done , if 2 will suffice 2 it is or 1 big one and a rolling set until everything is on

 

[TonyM]

I like little firm tits.

[BobbyJack]

Whichever gets you home quickest

 

[church]

how big is a big hit and how small is a small hit?

as long as im getting big money for small hits , dont think i will do big hits on my own anymore , and tony m are you on that missing list :RpS_scared:

 

[raytheplasterer]

shirly 2 massive hits is the same as 3 smaller hits.

 

[church]

im not sure Raytheplasterer , kinda depends on the m2 ?:RpS_unsure:

 

[raytheplasterer]

kind of a daft question really, like how long is a piece of string. but lashing on 4 or 5 bags of finish on your own is going to be stressful so i'd say smaller hits, rolling hits even.

 

[church]

i like to use 4-5 bags a day Ray , are we talking boardwork :RpS_unsure:

 

[mik8hx]

shirly 2 massive hits is the same as 3 smaller hits.

2 big is 4 full tubs whereas 3 small is 3 full tubs. 33% more with big hits imo.
Although if doing small hits I try and stay to dry angles and get 4/5 staggered in t day. More prefer big hits mysen.

 

[TheWand]

How big is a big tub?

 

[irish_spread]

It's big man, big
