Cheers legend much appreciated

Thanks legend. Yeah definitely makes patching a lot more controlled 💯🤙

Thank you brother 🙏

Thank you for watching 🙌

Thank you 🙌 Appreciate you watching on. RESPECT

Cheers legend appreciate you watching. Yeah I love the cornice cement. It usually sands pretty easy and the more you use it you will be able to control how fast or slow you want it to set with how much you mix and consistency of the product 👍🤙

@@paintingbyjosh hey mate - I’ve been using the “cornice cement 45” for some ceiling crack repairs and had mixed results. I mix it up thicker for the base coat and try to go thinner with it (more water) for the topcoat and I’m wondering if I should just use a base coat and top coat separately instead of the cornice cement? Have you had much success with ceiling crack repairs using cornice cement and fibreglass mesh? tape?

@@jjonescatch21 hi mate! I have been using the cornice as a base coat & top coat for years now and never really have a problem.

@@paintingbyjosh too easy man yeah I’ve been having a go with it as a base and topping compound (the 45min) and seem to have issues trying to get a consistent mix before it goes hard. When mixing it up I think I’m not gettin a good consistency because I’m nervous about over mixing and causing it to go hard faster but then if it’s not mixed enough it’s clumpy and hard to spread out on the wall. I think I need more experience and keep trialing it out to get it perfect but the mix ratio and method seems hard to master without making it set too fast. I’ve been mixing it up in a mud pan in small amounts as I need (since I do small patches and repairs) then spreading from the pan instead of mixing separately in a bucket - maybe that’s where I’m going wrong since In the mud pan its hard to mix it up good. Thanks for the videos and experience man - appreciate wanting to help out and give tips because I’m a chippy by trade and really trying to get better at plastering/paint touch ups. Would love to work with you for a month! But I’m in Mackay QLD

Very similar product. this is just powder form.

Hi mate, cornice cement would work im pretty sure. Sorry I can't help further cheers

Hey, yes you can definitely just fill straight over know need for paper tape with hair line cracks. If there is lots of continuous movement I would recommend paper tape. Appreciate you watching on & the kind words 🙏

Hi Tony, yes I always sand before & between coats. Most importantly is to dust down all surfaces prior to paint otherwise you will just create more work by having to sand more and you are definitely comprising adhesion by not dusting down💯 cheers for the message 👍

Yeah cornice cement is great for adhesion. That is so weird you mentioned that, how did you know? I always tell my wife some chocolate taste like Vegemite to me

@@paintingbyjosh remember when we have the flu everything tastes different, ive read that sense of smell effects how things taste, not saying thats the case for you but it was for me, took years to get it back, diesel is pretty harsh though.

The termites had a good feed 💯

Hey mate, yes most definitely you can you this for cracks/holes in brickwork & the multi purpose compound is more of a top/skim coat the cornice/base cement is better for larger deeper holes & sets harder & quicker 👍 hope this helps cheers

@@paintingbyjosh thanks for your reply! Now i know for next time.

Actually i more wuestion since im in the middle of it - there was some dodgy crooked rendering done which has beed painted over just a lot of bumps and lines and some dips. Can i go and put some joint compound over it to flatten it out a bit? It seems to bind ok even w paint under it… im gonne put a good base and top over it anyway ofcouse? Is that ok?

@@jorisvanimhoff9722 yes that would be perfectly fine the filling compound usually have strong adhesion. Just before it sets hard you can shave it down flat with a blade less sanding then sets also 👍

Hey, thanks for watching. I would always put a primer over anything bare or patched first before top coats go on 👍🙌

@@paintingbyjosh thanks 😊

Hi Tony, I always go over all patched surfaces with a primer/undercoat hope this helps legend 🤙

@@paintingbyjosh Thx mate love ya work

I might add make sure you don’t leave sanding dust on the wall .. I broom it then use a damp lambs wool .. you will save yourself a lot of grief in the future.

@@tonygarvin5602 thanks legend 🙏

Very similar mate👍

Yeah me either mate. This was eaten out by termites

Haha thank you legend that's what I'm here for🙌 Sharing knowledge is success for us all & less stress 💯. Appreciate you watching 🤙
