Sad c**t

[Djr]

Which one lol

Both

 

[djfleming22]

Lot of respect. I know it’s just laziness on my part.

Tell you another ODC trick if you use a hop up get some of the carpet protector put on the top so if you get any spills of plaster you can just wipe it off and change it whenever it’s needs done

Cleaning the tools lol. I got this tip on here, using bicarbonate of soda. Works well. Got a 10kg tub for £15 delivered.

If anyone didn’t know, it’s a great way to get the tools clean. Mix with water, generously, leave tools to soak. Will get some after pics tomorrow morning

I was wondering about this, and whether its ok to leave the 'bonded' s*p*r*lex type trowel in water overnight.

Nelaflex, refina s*p*r*lex, ox ultraflex and beroflex trowels all bonded with a tape I think, they seem more 'temporary' as not fully welded or equivalent - physically.

I was wondering how durable the tape is?
Leaving it in a chemical solution or even just water overnight, would it not weaken the bond at all?

@Plasterers1StopShop

Or @Refina ?

well,i have to admit my trowels will get neglected at some point and have to go for vinegar bath treatment .They come out as new.

 

[LarryTheDecorator]

I've used cola before, didn't seem to work considering the amount of nastiness in their ingredients

Shut up dick lips

 

[bobski]

After your finished using them

Every time, every day......


Still get a s**t layer of hard water build up on them.

 

[essexandy]

I just love the incontinance bag, carrying it around on domestics

Well I suppose it does save stopping for a pee while working over the Artex.

 

[paulf]

Lurpak save some piss for me I love a bit of "water sports".

I'll bet you do.

How in god's name do you use such filthy tools? Please tell me that's not one of your skimming trowels with all that crud on the blade?

Using them 6 days a week and neglecting them.

 

[LarryTheDecorator]

Interesting, something is going on there pretty well, when I put mine in cola for a few days, it did diddly squat.. would have been better off drinking it

My mixer looks awful, I've been letting it dry and then getting a hammer on it


I'll also book you in for a manicure

I'm seeing the build up getting quicker lately even with clean water, so I just sand soon as a film builds up

Good to see that Refina again, piece of s**t

bicarb works really well mate. gibbo reckons water alone will do it, i can't see how but worth a try

Started using it mate it's a nice trowel, nice worn in. Trying to avoid plastic

 

[LarryTheDecorator]

I was taught water too, didn't do anything for me - unless it came through my pressure washer

Gary is right. Plenty of site spreads will leave their mixing bucket in the tank over the weekend. On the Monday morning just take it out, give it a quick whizz over with the churn brush and it's literally like new.
What did they teach you on day four and five of that f**k**g course mate?
