If the client knows what he's look at, ie builder, would you still use sponge float?

 

[spunky]

Good question lol...... Sure someone'll say something but the finish is good so can't see a problem

 

[spunky]

Half of them are straight out of college and don't know there arse from there elbow it's the chap who's doing the snagging you have to worry about and you'll be gone by then

yer my plasterings on recommendations tho' ! don't do much site work.

Some of it's large houses on metre rates.

anyone had any feedback from decorators?

 

[spunky]

In my eyes it doesn't matter if it has 1 coat 5 coats you lay it on with a shovel or a ******* machine as long as it looks alright that's all that matters I have cheeky little pricks telling me one coats rough and I swear on my kids lives they look like they've been doing it 6 months there's alot of stigma attached to it and I guarantee 99% of doubters wouldn't have even tried it

 

[spunky]

Or they can't do it lol

i dont do the one coat sponge float but i like the finish you get off a 2 coat sponge float it looks pukka mate, i dnt really see what the problem is with spongeing, it just garantees a perfectly even finish, PROVIDEING you know how to use it properly
