Dam it. Was gonna try that on MondayYou wont get the bubbles out with that wacker plate.........
The thing is the damage is already done!!!!
If you couldn't control first time on plaster board then you ain't got a prayer 2nd time on bare skim.
If you genuinely do care then you should have the decency to pay another plasterer to sort and be humble and put it down ad a learning curve!

Looks like my bullshit radar was accurate as ever.
I saved the pictures to my phone to zoom in and see the bubbles.. it shows the time and location on them. Pictures taken in Hungarton, an hour from peterborough.
Also you’ve never heard of taping and doing half n half. I’ve never done this but of course I’ve heard about it
.
Posting about a 6sqm ceiling previously and now banging out 47s on tod? Pictures show a good looking ceiling too.
Full of shite, but the real question is why? pretending to he a plasterer wtf

I'm not pretending to be anything I asked about the 6sqm ceiling as I didn't know if there was any other way to seal it other than PVA. This time I asked about the bubbles I was getting as I had never seen it before. Big deal I didn't know about the taping method you learn something new everyday as they say. I have done plenty of plastering over the last 6 years and I've gradually gone from small rooms too bigger and this is the biggest yet. I come on here for advise not too be called a bullshitter.

Just split it @Dave king . Prob twice . Least worse case you got to lines to sand out.
1 skim 1st bit pull tape of at end and clean snots of
2 i always keep a mm ish from line with first coat some times 2nd coat and just fill it when flattening stops getting fresh skim on side you.ve just done .
3 when done i.ll give joint bit of hammer to make sure.

You will get bumps in the finish plaster when the of a has been applied too thick and has dried sufficiently that if it start to fail come away from the surface it causes the bubbles you talk about.
These aren't the air bubbles you can get when going over backing coat. Those can be troweled out when firm.
These can't the only way to remedy it is to cut them all out and either reskim it or fill and snag it if it's only a couple.
This also happens with artex and new walls that have been painted but not sealed properly
Experience is s wonderful thing! Lol
