Before I tackle the next wall, I would like to ask some questions regarding:
1. Areas I found a little difficult.
2. One problem area.
Difficulty in getting a clean edge along where the ceiling & wall meet.
Any tips?
I think I was ok with 1st & second coats but at some stage either during the 2nd or in flattening I seemed to create not so much hollows but more like plaster had been torn from the wall as I passed over it (about a half mm deep) I never noticed this happening, but what causes that? It seems to occur after the skim has been laid. I also found them difficult to `fill in` and opted for filler after the event, which was a safer bet for me at this stage. (beginner)
