Keeping tools/buckets clean ...

I literally started my first job a couple of days ago, using National Gypsum brand Kal-Kote basecoat plaster (lots of adhesive and sand). The finish coat will be from the same product line, but I need to get the basecoat on the ceiling today … need to get some scaffolding first, along with some retarder to see if I can extend the cure time enough to avoid having seams and wasted plaster.

I definitely need to work on my speed, but that will come with practice. Overall i'm really impressed with my first attempt and how easy it was to get the wall flat, I thought I would have a much more difficult time, looking forward to the finish plaster.

to finish .
My ultimate routine involves shot of wd40 to the trowels ,wipe with a microfibre cloth .
Be sure to place trowels in a briefcase to avoid damages .

Same with buckets do not just clean the inside
Use the sponge for the externals of the bucket
