do you just plaster

[easyandy]

Hello. I am new here. I have been trying to think of wats to diversify my business. I have got Part P electrics. Now I am thinking of painting to compliment skimming. I want to use an airless sprayer, probably a graco. I don't want to do the gloss but just the emulsion. Do any of you do this with plastering?

an airless finish is very nice finish , only down side is , you can not touch in , you have to do the whole wall or ceiling again

Why wouldn't you do the glossing too?
No client is going to give you the emulsion job to then have to get someone else in to finish off the woodwork.
Would they?

You do the woodwork first with a hvlp turbine

if you're Part P why put up with customers buying Wilco paint, or three out of four walls in a different colour emulsion that needs three coats.

I do tiling as well, makes a nice change from chasing about all day long but would not want to make a living out of it. When I started out, god's dog was a puppy, tiling was a plasterer's or a plumber's job

Hi if using airless do all these plasters need sanding after.
