bonding

Hey all. First timer here so be nice… Levelling up a kitchen off shoot wall to the dining room where we’ve had a wall taken out. It needed building up about 18mm so I’ve done one coat of bonding and didn’t realised the second coat had to be done soon after. I did the first coat yesterday...

Hey people. So, after trying a few times to get a pro to come out and even give me a quote for an artex ceiling with no success, I decided to give it a go myself - like what's the worse that could happen! :D Anyway, PVA'd the ceiling nicely, got some bonding mixed up and went to town on it. Two...
