It’s A Boy
Can anyone 1 coat with refina supaflex ??
Easy with mt.
Had a new supaflex for 2 days.
Got the hang of it...(finish set later instead of earlier).
Any problems with joints when painted ??
I cant skim reveals with it !!
Thanks for replies.
 
You wont be thanking for the replies when you've heard them.
if someone's paying you to do a job and you've agreed to do it for the price, then do it properly one coat on board is abhorrent unless its been sprayed it always looks dogshite.
 
Learned to 1 coat bg after using mp for 3 years (non spraying).
plenty of firms only order mats too 1 coat.

2 coating is easier .....1 coating is earlier !!
I take it I cant 1 coat with supaflex ??
Tried a big hit today all seemed well just a bit paranoid about the joints.
 
If you can already use a mt and it's easy what the fu........... He...... Are yo.........goin.......on .......abou..........

done this for a year... did it on my house.... found out why its a no go.

makes the surface skim brittle and weak almost dusty, once painted even when primed the paint bond is poor and can damage easy and pull away . After finding this to be true i went back to doing 2 coats with no issue.
 
iv heard this but been back on sites for 2nd phase of work and never had any issues I think its all about the coat u put on
 
you crack on mate I c u got the im the best plasterer in the world disease if I hadn't seen it for my self I wouldn't of tried it
 
Tried the odd time with a sponge and finish with a plazzy.. Problem is it is inconsistent .. Some times it looks great other times no so.. Only use it as a last resort

Hahah so saying one coating is shite implies im the best plasterer in the world .... your the one that can crack on m8 knocking out shite work....

The fact is it says 2 COATS on BG bags .... until it says 1 coat on them you can shove your argument up your arse ...
