Gliddens contract is excellent paint as a miscoat, or even as a primer/base cover, but, personally I wouldnt use it as a finish coat.

Might have something to do with the 'common sense factor', the majority of men seriously lack any common sense, along with thier selected hearing problem :P

:shock: PVA and water, why? Sanding down the walls prior to papering will get rid of any bits of stuck paper.

Or.....Top---> Middle--->Bottom---> :D

I agree, as its only a skim, just wait till its completely dry, whatever you do dont go down the PVA route. If the plaster was bonded then skimmed, you would have to wait months for the plaster to dry out before you hung Vinyl paper, but as its skimmed,and as long as you size the walls, you...

I'm absolutly sick to the back teeth reading about her. :twisted: She has a great voice, her future mapped out, could earn a fortune, be the next best thing since sliced bread, and what does she do???? mess it all up. :twisted: I have no sympathy for her, she has been given a chance...

I agree with Zamps :D blending is the secret, (I do the same with my makeup) :wink: It might help you if after you have rolled your vertical area, and just before your going to dip your roller back in the tray to load up, gently roll upwards from the skirting, blending as you go along...

Cheers noseall, :D perhaps I should change my name, or at least put something in front of the Spice?????
