Before it was dry looked mint

i guess a blind man would like to see it! you cannot present a finish like that and ask for payment. why was the floor not protected ?
 
Second to rendex comment. I used to overwork my plaster i.e not leave it to pull in and also use alot of water and had the same sort of 2 tone thingy. If its flat and smooth don't worry people dont know any different esp after its painted

Its fine ....i remember having problems when i first used flex's.
Use as little as possible water towards end of set.
 
looks like you tried to trowel it up too soon... far too much dirty water...

dont lay on with a s*p*r*lex... that will rarely end well... and to be honest I would master a normal trowel first before trying anything that is time saving or whatever...

We all have bad days...

as lodan said paint it and see how it looks
 
Eureka! That's it, the boards have been up too long! It is imperative that you skim them when they are still "green" , firm to the touch, but not too dry.

That wasn't ment to come across as nasty Lodan just a joke. I've no advice to give but if they've layed on with a s*p*r*lex and used it all through the set that would be prime suspect.

when i used s*p*r*lex i done hits from strart to finish with it and the walls were fine, never looked like the pictures above to blame a supeflex is incorrect,,, having said that i stopped using s*p*r*lex

I've laid in with a nela mediflex and refina s*p*r*lex without any dramas at all . but I close up/flatten with a speedskim so it makes no difference how it's thrown on it'll end up flat.
I'd never use a nelaflex (s*p*r*lex) to lay in though mainly cause at 4.3" wide I'd have more over the back of my hands then on the board's.
