So if I told you to jump in a river would you

If he said yes would you tell him

 

[essexandy]

Yeah

But surely you're using the internal trowel before you trowel up to the internal, so troweling out any line?

It's got to be worth a shot Gary.

Not even gonna play this game with you

What game @John j ? I was being serious.

I've used 103° for years. Pretty much ever since I started using what are, or were, essentially tape and jointing internal trowels.
Obviously they flex to the angle of the internal unlike the old rigid plastering internal trowels/twitchers. You're not holding a 90° internal trowel at a true 90° due to the angle you're holding it at.
I do have a feeling that you know all that and were just baiting me.

You been doing it long enough to know you can still get a groove now and again . Unless your perfect . Then your first perfect plasterer i.ve come across. Except on here everyones perfect lol

I've said plenty of times before that nobody is perfect in this job but I honestly can't ever remember leaving a 'groove' in the finish. You do slightly turn in the corners of the trowels don't you?

You can get a groove using a twitcher mate! Try leaving it as late as possible to use it and that will eliminate most of it.

Yeah too soon @John j n painter will lose his brush in them

I bend wings in as andy said

 

[lurpak]

Love that feeling when your finishing off n the wing pulls half ur wall off

I run the internal down after each coat and each trowel.

What did I say to deserve that?
Do you leave a groove in your finished walls?

 

[Cockney]

Whatever works best for you mate!
I personally find it works better for me late on.

 

[lurpak]

Funny how we do things differently. I give em one just before laying in to form them. Then again when firming a bit but finish em with trowel for extra sharpness

These new end you don't need to

Oh john

My old man used to put a float down the internal before using a twitcher.

 

[John j]

I used mine once right before last flatner

 

[essexandy]

These new end you don't need to

I'm not for a minute saying they're not good, just that I've never found the others a problem. As you said we all have different ways of doing things.

 

[essexandy]

What you only put the internal trowel down once? That could be why it's leaving grooves.

 

[lurpak]

Leaving grooves its still wet. Need to apply pressure so wait till firm as fook

I don't get em all time. And seen good spreads get em.

No just wanted to how you react big boy

 

[John j]

Any of you use it down a dry a wet angle . I saw a kid do it a while back and tried it today . I think I may do it all time

 

[Gibbo]

I do

Done it on ceilings sometimes but hardly bother

No I don't.

Not if u trowel up the internal corner and across the ceiling line, u should never get a groove unless u lay on like a re***d

 

[John j]

??? What the hell is the point of that geez!

That what i thought. Tried it today and gets any little snots of . (Wasn't on a fresh plastered wall. ). And before anyone says owt i.m only person on here who gets snots cause ye all gods

So do I way . Way I was taught . Also have some gear on it too , run it in then take edges off with Trowel . I can imagine these plastic ones aren’t strong enough to leave a straight internal . They will just ride over the bumps. Plus they look like they will be fooked after several uses.
