The problem is, I have the upstairs to do next, semi vaulted ceilings , so.. have I done something wrong ? or is it just a freak reaction with the substrate and is it going to happen again. The one in the photo has no bond whatsoever if I touch it more falls , is a f**k**g nightmare

Just board the f**k*r and skim it,or run from the job

Wish I could run from it haha

 

[raytheplasterer]

use Unibond pva, the extra expense is worth it.

 

[johniosaif]

Pva it ( section ) let it dry scrape rest it

 

[FreeD]

Hmmm distemper? Anyway I find best...neat PVA mixed with blue grit for colour...hit it with the 'Zombie Mix' when almost dry. @zombie have you copyrighted 'Zombie Mix'? Heard quite a few people phase the term.

See I'd go for that, if your process is sound then there's something else at play, not worth f**k**g about. Run to the f**k**g hills.

If the customer don't want it overboarded and skimmed at the extra expense tell them its for peace of mind for them and you considering a big patch has already shelled off,if there gunna be tight f**k**s then I way scrape all the loose skim off the ceiling use a grit then zombie mix like Free d mentioned

Why can't you? Have you said over boarded?

 

[Casper]

A weak solution of unibond. Let it tack up then skim.

 

[Ktownsend]

Rough c**ts. Just board it. No comebacks and you don't end up looking like a massive amateur bellend

 

[Cockney]

Total school boy error there.

Baffling..what would it be..about 6 boards,2 hour boarding it

I think what we are saying donzo is this,hes prepped it right the first time so why bother gambling another time,board the t**t and skim it,couldn't be anymore simpler..

 

[billymultifinish]

bonding on a ceiling? over artex? never .
bodge . no sympathy.
should’ve overboarded.

yep , why let it bother you? just bodge it again. artex will be well damp by now. needs overboarding like he should have done in the first place.

Could be out of date PVA... I picked up a tub off the shelf in Wickes a few months ago and glanced at the date, it was 2018. They don't rotate their stock so some is randomly well out of date. No idea if out of date PVA would cause that though

 

[Donzo]

Give the guy a break,he is been doing it over 30 years and its his first fail.
