dont matter what mix i use or when i hit the wall wet/dry/tacky
it rips and bubbles
mite just be the pva im using or me lol
im thinking of using a bonding agent not pva as when youv done it its done no need too do it agen hit it as s soon as it dry

just keep going and going
jumping from one room to the next no prep work needed

The wickes gear takes 6 hours to dry iirc.

Try a different brand of PVA maybe fella, they may have a bad batch that your using.

yer im going tooo take a 5l tub with me but the good thing about using a primer not pva you work on it when dry so when its done its done no need too go over it agen like pva
