Nice work as ever mate. Was on a little rendering job this last week, scratching on. Going back next week to top it off. Taken a few little helpers from your channel to help me along the way. Thankyou for your effort in putting these together mate. Always a pleasure to watch and always something to learn. Every day is a school day. Top man. 👌

@macplastering 2 жыл бұрын

Its the way i was shown always worked and still does and to be honest most plasterers i know do the same ratios here again might be the sand is the difference our sand is nice and sharp

WHAT CAUSES SLUMPING WHEN REDERING

@macplastering Жыл бұрын

Hi john mate I would say main reasons would be to wet a wall and or to heavy a coat, sometimes its ok but as long as you let it soak in a dry if that makes sense
