Hello did your first coat lookkinda like cartoon cheese by that I mean loads of holes all over it? Wen you apply second coat air bubbles get trapped in between these one solution flatten your 1st coats. On you final trowel roy utrif you still can see them put your trowel flat on the walls effected area and in a circular motionapply some pressure then trowel normally fingers crossd theyll go if not go have a fag then give a dry trowel

Omg

Hack the wall back to brick and start again lol

Probably air bubbles, just sand them down

 

[asb]

if its only a few small bubbles when hard give a hard trowel

 

[bubbles65]

Probably just blisters - because you walked away too soon.

As said above, a good hard wipe over with a dry trowel should help :RpS_thumbup:

 

[Stevo1]

So skim one coat flatten out then go back and do second
