No ..never I would Ask customer to remove paper or we can do it .....either way paper off...

I think this will come down to what you prefer yourself .. I'm a bit old school so I would go with lime render/plaster but other will suggest pb cause it's easier ....(maybe they can't float wall either?)

No you will be fine with NHL for bit longer yet... Another 6 weeks or so...and longer if you cover it ...

That's Lime plaster .. Plaster is blown and ideally whole wall needs replastering (make sure it's a lime based plaster ) Your going to need someone experienced with those materials and not just a skim monkey

Is this the new ez machine (looks like an m200)?

Drycoat ....Not even sure they still do it....? Not seen any in merchants for ten yes..

It's terrible ..sorry..

We got an unbranded version to try it last year ...cost about 150.00 and it's 110v. Refina do a cordless version but it's really expensive but think it's the one to go for....

If it was that easy we wouldn't have spent thousands on a machine

What I mean is.....he said he was giving samples to a few plasterers to test... Just wondered if he'd had a result (is it any good)

Ryan Have you finished testing the new formula ?

If find it splits far too easily when dropping render and shovelling on it.. Gone back to wood

Should have asked on the thatchers forum Where the mention of money would have caused a riot

Welcome Mac

Patching with lime finish is going to stand out like a sore thumb Lime finish needs to be left an open texture (no steel trowel to finish) we use a sponge float and then a sponge to finish For a patch it Does not blend into surrounding plaster very well because it contains silica sand

I do small jobs on a Saturday morning rather that wasting time in the week ...

Welcome brother nick

You hum it I'll play it!!

Looks like a lath and plaster ceiling Check it's not lime wash under that paper... (Chalky to touch) weight of plaster and water in skim will bring it away if so..

This is worth a listen ..

What if I ask the customer and they don't like beans ?

For the uninitiated plastic beads may seem cheap and nasty But they are fine if fitted properly which I'm afraid these were not..

Love that french scaffold ... Always looks too flimsy.

I would doubt it....The French don't use multi finish .... I skimmed my place with multi ,neighbours thought it was great didn't believe it was done by trowel most of their interior work is drylined(even renovations) they do have some plaster called lucetec 2000 which is horrid stuff

If your removing any damage and replacing with lime that's fine If the paint is masonry then a limewash would not be a good idea..... I can't tell from the pic how weathered the wall is .....are you getting any penetrating damp on inside , is the render sound ? Is paint flaking /bubbled? to be...

Welcome Can't beat a Marshalltown....stainless steel Although my lad had just bought a nela carbon steel which seems fine Got a couple flexi too but Im not sold on em

Alright Steve

We bought far too many rolls of shyte scrim from. ....wack,r&j. Ect Just getting down to last half dozen rolls , have been using spray tack adhesive and works a treat Looking for some better scrim (happy to pay a bit more ) Any recommendations?

We flattened it and then Flexi Left later than I would with bg

We just used some today on a top landing ceiling (and a sm wall) Did take four hours though Goes on fine trowels ok but you need to leave it longer than BG multi Does rip easy too ... It just reminds me of using knauf finish 18 years ago ... Few pics as we went along .....first and second...

It seems to be fine with lime finish and don't really think it pulls in too quickly

It's more expensive than dg27 as well

Gonna try the finish tomorrow..... Got a small ceiling and a sm wall to skim (plasterboard )

Whereabouts in the country are you ?
