Yeah, that was in reply to this:

How about wrapping some of that 100mm wide scrim around it stapling it then sticking a bead on top

I think we are missing the point here , each job you go to price has to be judged on its own merits .As we all know (hopefully), plastering is all about preparation and when looking at re'skimming walls i always make sure to have a good tap around to see if there is any loose plaster that may need to be removed . If the old wooden staff beads are not in a good condition then they should be taken of as well but if you are having to patch the walls in the first place why not remove them anyway . There is nothing worse than having to go back to a re'skim because it has cracked after decoration .YOU can do the best finish in the world but if if cracks because of the poor prep then its only down to one person . Its you name and rep at the end of the day.

They crack before decoration. Once the wall is dry they don't move again. A quick fill and jobs a gooden.

i usually take them out to be fair but i cut top, cut bottom then run a stanley down each edge till i can feel or hear bick work then just cut that line out a but wider to reduce collateral damage take the bead out and patch and skim simples. also i dnt tell the client about the beads i just price it in anyway then they either get me to do it or they dnt if they dnt fcuk em if they do then when im done ill tell them about it and thier always happy cos they think you have gone the extra mile for them without realiseing i priced it anyway
