suprised you weren’t expecting it. out of only two options there was 50% chance that it would be at least one persons opinion
True. I don't have an issue with dot and dab and skim. As you say I can do that myself. My only concern is with it being an entrance hallway will that be robust and durable for the beating it will likely take. If traditional plaster is better it may be worth me getting someone in. What do you reckon.

You could finish it with thistle durafinish instead of multi or board finish.
it’s much harder wearing.
boards need priming first though.
