I can’t help it but It does put a rye smile on my face when I come across some of the s**t that’s been hidden.

 

[LarryTheDecorator]

Why is it wrong? (so I can understand)

Yes and then you get the satisfaction of looking flabbergasted while shaking your head.. sucking your teeth and saying “ooo done that?!”

Bonding is interior backing plaster. It will suck up water, no good for exterior at all.

Skim dabs won’t hold s**t on the walls

(Weren’t sure which one you were asking about)

 

[LarryTheDecorator]

ahhh ok! I thought that looked like bonding (also didn't know what bonding was - thankyou for the definition!)

Tbf boards were dabbed with (pink ) or skim plaster before dri wall adhesive came out , before my time but if I’m correct up until somewhere in 1990s

 

[LarryTheDecorator]

I thought my plastering was bad, even I can do better than whoever did that

Common thing years ago even on big sites, Board Finish or Bonding.

And then you suddenly realise that you did it five years earlier.

Cannot remember the name of it but B G did do an adhesive in the 80's that resembled bonding in texture cos I was using it to Dab insulated boards somewhere in Leeds in 88.

Mental, I knew they used to dab with bonding but sanctioning skim?!

NO Vincey .Bonding compound was well in use by the 80's when i started but it was all BG stuff and was gray horrible s**t .

But but but.... skim?! Can’t get my head round that one

.The concept of sticking boards was thought of before the production of an adhesive was ,

Last year I ripped off a load of boards at a house built in 90s all the boards were applied with skim on blocks tbh I never knew it was the case back then to do that but tbf it lasted 25 odd years

How do you know it was skim and not bonding compound .? just because it was pink ? AL the gypsum mined in the south is pink but any from the north is grey. Many years ago (1990's) i did some work in Liverpool and the finish was grey . Well it used to be ...
