I'm sure @Loden said he used a couple of really nice bags of multifinish today...might be because his buckets are clean and drill paddle is new though,

Hoping that there has been a change as it's lovely at the minute, glides beautifully and really shows in the finish, not holding my breath though. Highlights how shocking the bad batches are.

Got to say thankyou to BG myself for the nightmare in Jan, we had a pallet of multi, I kept on getting hard bits in the finish, I had a few rows with my labourer accusing him of allsorts, then I ended up replacing my bucket and my whisk in case it was something to do with that, once I had done all this and it was still happening I realised it was the bags...so thanks for that BG, somebody told me recently that BG are recycling skim from Gold Trowel training centre, basically all there waste skim goes back to BG and they have a big machine that crushes it up and it goes back into the bags?

Thank you British Gypsum
 
Bg materials come from the stars...all of it.
It all started from the "big bang"
It will end up back in the stars.
So my theory is to try and not too worry to much about it.....or youl end up like the tortoise.

Right I need to get off netflix and this new young attenbourgh
 
She couldn't pronounce her R's. Think it was more 'woeland' . Every kid in the country used to go round saying 'can I help you woeland' ....poor lass
 
Gypsum is pretty grim stuff if it's not used/treated appropriately.

Probably the most extreme example I can think of is the Mosul dam. They fcuked up the survey and poured the concrete onto it in the bedrock. The water is dissolving the gypsum and the dam's moving. With all the sh1t going on in that area they're getting way behind in the grouting that's supposed to slow the erosion. If it's not sorted soon it will fail, and if that happens then it's estimated the death toll will be over a million.
