cheers bod, never used or seen anyone use the stuff, how do you finish it then?

 

[beddy]

actually i've used stuff similar to this before, it came from the same company that make tyrolean. just seen a close up and recognised the finish. expensive stuff

they are decent prices for tight coat of bonding+set had to turn down 2000m2 mono today

 

[bodplasterer]

I started the staircase today and its a nightmare with all the scaffolding and being inducted i managed to do 2 walls on the staircase and its not a tight coat of bonding as there is board butted up against the concrete so have to bring it out half inch i think i covered my money though the 2 walls were nearly 40m2 so not to bad for first day
