Funny ceilings - multi on stipple.

[kemp]

Fair play, whatever works for you marra, but I regularly use the same batch to second coat. I know a lot of the lads like to use a fresh batch for their second coat, but they also trowel in their first coat and wait a while whereas I just bang it on and once I've got the walls on that I want I just turn round and second-coat everything. If I've got some gear left from first-coating I ain't fkin throwing it, so it goes on the walls. Mind you - my first coat is nice and neat................I'm great I am :RpS_thumbup:

same here (when i do skim nowadays that is lol )

I do throw a lot away cos I'm a stubborn so and so.
Must also confess to laying on my second coat with the same first batch of carlite on high suction backgrounds in the old days.:glare:

You naughty boy, administer a bakers dozen, full uppercuts to yourself in the corner of the room.

I have now used unifinish on some varied backgrounds mainly walls. I find that a first coat with uni followed by a second coat with multi gives a better overall experience and finish. I floated 2 walls with hardwall at about 15mm thick onto thermal blocks and skimmed with uni the same day. It pulled in a treat with no signs of blisters and finished quickly which is what I wanted.
