have you managed to get your tape invention into the shops yet?
you would imagine every diy'er in the country would buy one roll of it. probably tradesmen aswell.
that's about 10 million rolls, 5 pounds a roll, £50 million pounds.

It's on Amazon and our own site and a few local merchants at the moment. Definitely not a fiver a roll though It's a bespoke product. We will be going into the merchants in a couple of months with our handy boxed product.

Nope, that was his Step-dad. He followed in his fathers footsteps, who allegedly did a lot in 7 days, then sat back and watched everybody else for years

That was Scottie10bags. Invented his own before speedskim…….. he should have got a patent and started several threads on here about it and given out free samples and then start ten more threads about it…..

Update; I had the perfect job for a speedskim today, 6.8m long 2.8 high stud wall new boards, nice and flat.
I laid first coat on and straight on with the speedskim. I wasn’t impressed, it pulled in ribbons like tiger stripes, I ended up going over with a trowel again to neaten back up.
Second coat the same thing laid down fresh mix as I was doing both sides, flatten immediately and it put stripes in the plaster.
Is this because it’s new?

It’s probably because you lay on neater than a speedskim can get it. As for me makes mine flatter lol
did you dress the edge with some sand paper?

My experience was similar.
Somebody left my tools with Somebody else and when I went to collect them, the speedskim wasn't there.
Never bothered looking for it.

Oh poor grandad, disappointed again.
Difficult to say without seeing the speedskim, maybe the edge isn't as good as it should be.

Give the edge a sand mate, wet and dry from Halfords is good.

Yes.
It needs breaking in, just like any new tool mate.
