Really good video. Very well explained. Turns out you have much more time then you think. I’ve been hitting the first wet trowel way too early. Thanks for the tips

Great vid mate. Loving the channel and tips. Yours and Blaine's channel are superb for us as a bathroom and kitchen fitters skimming our own work. Is that Spider scrim? looks extra grey. We like the orange Fibatape as its very sticky.

Blaines channel is the best. I have been a sub of his for years. Excellent content. The scrim tape comes from Prestige Building Supplies. They call it “silver scrim” excellent price. About £2.60 a roll I think. We have used about 200 rolls of it since switching over from pink. -no complaints with it.

When you do your first wet trowell that with hard trowell or superflex
@AlexMorleyPlastering
@AlexMorleyPlastering 3 жыл бұрын
Most of the time we just use a steep trowel. We try and stay away from flexible trowels mostly. Thought they have there place. That said to get the best result I wouldn’t use them before the second wet trowel. The pressure isn’t even enough when the plaster is still malleable.

I find ceilings at least twice as hard as walls. Knackering on the arms too.

Alex, your explanation of the sequence, touch tests and timing is first rate. However, can you tell us what is actually happening to the plaster at each stage. Is it setting, evaporating, curing, shrinking? What exactly is “fat”. What is “pulling in” The manufacturer will tell you then you can tell us. I feel that if we could know what is happening then your process steps would be more valuable.

You’ve only coated that once and when you’re putting on instead of working around the edges pull one side out and work down the ceiling and then flatten and for your second coat put it on the opposite way.

Did you run out of scrim for ceiling? Rough as owt man. If anyone as any common sense they’ll see u didn’t scrim ur ceiling. Also look at size of gaps you’ve had to fill with drywall adhesive lol, why don’t you ask an apprentice to show you wot he learned in his first week at college

We used white and silver scrim on this job. The white isn’t very visible in the video. All joints and ceiling lines are taped, thank you for comment though.
