Cleaned the inside of the van and the tools today omg im 1 scruffy c**t!!!..

I always say that my tools and van are a barometer of how im feeling about work and life in general!!!!...well what can I say jesus I need to get my s**t together!!!

Not so much untidy but every tool proper caked in plaster, every work tops got holes and stains all over, hop ups twice the weight with plaster etc etc!

And the ultimate shame a 10yr old 4 piece level set that I just looked at and laughed and thought I don't even know where to start with these so have just ordered a new set!!!

So zombies new yr resoloution is must keep my gear cleaner and take more pride in my appearance I recon I must have looked like fred flinstone for the last 6months!!!

On that note any tips about keeping on top of tools/clothes im a proper tramp I just wipe my hands and trowels etc straight onto clothes might even have to go G** and order some bib and braces!!!!

So come on slag me or gulp plz tell me your all the same???

Zombie:RpS_crying:
 
Order the new cork handled estwing supaflex lath hammer scrubbing brush, 2or3 quick taps and your tools will be knackered.
 
well done, zombie :RpS_thumbup: a picture paints a thousand words :-)

well ive done it!!!!

I do keep my trowels clean,wash after each gauge and sometimes inbetween then about once a week sometimes more I will use a window scraper to scrape off any build up on both sides of the trowels,whitch isn't usually much as I keep on top of it,it takes under 5 minutes to do all of my trowels and corner trowel etc.:RpS_thumbup:

Its just something I do,I like a clean trowel but I sometimes work with a lad who has that much plaster on the handle of his mt you can no longer see what colour the handle is,it doesn't bother him and he's a good spread:RpS_thumbup:
 
Where are those trousers from in the dude who did the supalex video I think they are referred to as the starwars trousers
