Used two bags of that today and it was fine,still got problems with the bonding today have to be quick with it as its setting in the bucket and stuck to the trowel.
 
Was the green grit the Cementone one? Have used a couple of tubs recently for the first time and quite liked it as a bit finer grit.

I'm using those bags today, just about to second coat. Looking forward to this now ...
 
b*ll***s. How can you badly prep board lol.


I had gear tested and it came back as faulty so it does happen.
I reckon he could be right tbf. After 10 years of prepping rooms I must have suddenly become s**t at it

I do know what he means. Too much pva. Wallpaper glue. Etc etc can make the gear funny.

But when you have faulty gear it’s completely different.
