Impressed

[BobbyJack]

On a Venetian ceiling in knutsford this week. Decent size lid at 90 metres. Have to say whoever plastered the lid before we started did a great job. Probably the best I've been on to. Anyone here take credit?

Why the f**k would anyone want a Venetian ceiling????

That just looks depressing!!!

No offence!

I wouldn't mind being called a non proper spread and venetianing that lid as worth alot more than board and skimming it.

Killer day today. The lid is bigger than I thought. 124 metres. I thought that was for the whole job. 6 of us today took nearly 7 hours applying and polishing. My neck, back and shoulders are destroyed

Quite a bit. Especially in large new builds where a designer specs it
