Using the straight edge the wrong side😂

Some renderers should take not with this. I agree with brettwil87 - too many sloppy renderers who fail to use a screed. Critical light hits, and the wall looks horrific. I got burned on a 6K job in Australia a renderer who failed to screed - had to get it redone since most of my walls were in critical light for 2-3 hours in the day. Had enough of looking at the sloppy work and finally got a guy in who used a screed. What a difference. If your renderer does not have a long screed that is well used - run for the hills and find one that does! Simply floating and failing to use the screed is not good enough if you have high standards and walls that are in critical light areas.

In europe especially france, spain, benelux and switzerland skim coating exterior and interior is done by professional painters and decorators .Thats one reason why the skilled eastern europeans can come over to this country and do things that we still catorgorise as individual trades.Of course plasters will always do their thing but they must also look to be skilled multi tasked trades to compete or they will lose out.

@PATPADDY8 its nice to hear that I never use beads outside it looks amatuerish even stainless or plastic look bad

The external angle bead is that stainless steel or hot galvanised dip? Do you use stainless steel nylon anchors to fasten the bead? Its good to see you like doing good work as this is satisfaction.

@ehaug Render is not a plaster. Plaster comes from gypsum. Where as render is normally for external but can be also for internal work. Render normally consists of a mortar depending what Country you are from as to the type of cement and sand. A feathering edge works well with screeding wet work in cold places where the mortar does not dry and sometimes additives are needed. You can also screed plaster with a feathering edge. Like the German product a plaster you float and set in the one coat.

PLEASE NOTE! Always use respiratory protection when stripping old Artex as it can contain ASBESTOS! By the way I enjoy watching your vids mate! Nice to see the job bein done right!

Thats a feathering edge. I have one of those. Its a pity with the filming as the frame rate is slow better to hold the camera still. Its a different type of render what are the materials? The mortar looks a lot different to what we use in Western Australia. As we use sand that seemed different. It looks like a type of mud or river sand can you describe the material?

great job but i would use plastic beads doesent rust.

I live in wimborne and am now inspired to do it all myself LOL
