you could use dot and dab adhsive to stick your beads on the day before or mix with dirty water and it will go off quicker

i,ve got a small tool which is handy for the awkward angles and good for filling in between sockets and always have a knife and tin snips.

Yeah know what you mean, a lip to plaster to so that it's flush rather than having to feather in

didn't bond it. Put neat PVA on waited to go tacky and put a coat of multi finish, PVA again in the morning and put 2 coats of multi. Looked at the wall the other day after joiners had finished with skirtings etc and the wall looks fine

I would draw a level pencil line across the wall break off any plaster etc abount an inch below and then carefully hammer and bolster across the line to give a nice straight finish to make the new plaster to blend to.

i've just done a job recently in which the clients had wallpapered woodchip onto plasterboard, had to steam and scrap it off which did bring alot of the paper coat of the plasterboard. The boss told me just to PVA it put a coat of multi finish on and reskim as normal the next day.

Hi, the blue liquid in the white tub is called rendermix but i would only use it in the scratch coat.

Can't belive such a simple product can cause so much confusion and misunderstanding. Thank you for the info trowelmoney1

To be fair when we've used it neat we have never had any problems. If your taught one way you tend to stick (parden the pun) with that unless someone else tells you any different. I think thats why so many peolpe get confussed or misslead when doing something

Hi, thank you for you reply. Your right it does have fold down lid. Sorry to ask a silly questions but what is a GSR?

Hi, we seem to have a problem with the gas supply to our gas cooker hobs. The ignition works fine but after a turning on the gas, no gas comes through but it flows fine for the grill and oven. Please could anyone advise to fix the problem and what the problem is?

Hi, we use the the B&Q PVA with no problems and my boss tends to put neat PVA on the walls/ceilings the night before. I've also worked with one group of sub contractors who water it down. Anyone else use it neat?
