Wish I could zombie but they are moving the furniture for me one room at a time, it's one of those where I said yes coz we didn't have full weeks and now I am rammed and if i sent my mate he would have left a plaster trail up the stairs. It's a shame coz the room is a bit to big for a big set so...
These walls were so small there was no roughing on I just layer on neat as I had the time it was tight but neat so no need to flatten 1st trowel unless I worked the first coat to set it off more maybe that would help
Kind what I was afraid of zombie and Essex I have used damp bags before with no probs apart from when you get on with rocks obv, thinking back I reckon I could have left the first coat on all day and it wouldn't pull so I've def ****ed it, bit ****ed of with my self as I have turned into a quick...
Interesting, spread1970. Gonna try and use the multi I have left on a small area on a site job Monday and in the meantime give all the walls a nice coat of bond it and let it dry over weekend. Then if it turns out it is me I will try a tight coat of bond on this reskim should take long and I...
Cheers kebab, I hope your not suggesting I'm a bucket digger tho! Coz I'm totally not unless there is no other way. I'm not saying I don't have handles up my arse I'm just not a bucket digger.

Nice one spunky! I get it, You've been here the longest and probably never had a bad day in your life I bet every set trowels up like butter for you. Just wanted a bit of advice as my work today was not upto my usuall standard, it happens mate that's why there are parts of the forum for genuine...
I'm going 2mo to prep another room so I will see then, I'm convinced it's either the backing or damp multi as like I said I quite often lay it in with the same mix when space and knocking up is a problem I know it makes a smaller set but I find it works well either at the end of a site day or on...
Yeah I know I rolled it on about 2 the day before so it weren't to far off and I thought this but it's not the first time I hasn't waited 24 hours. Do u think it needed at least the 24 hours as it was on a silk paint? My only other fear is the bags may have been a little damp but again i have...
Hi everyone, first post so be gentle. Basically I done a reskim today room about 3m by 2m and lid and it did not go well! I dropped my kit off sheeted up and applied thistle bond it the afternoon before as I notice the walls seemed like they had silk paint on of some sort anyway I got there this...
