    Anybody know why this guy stopped making videos? I’ve learnt so much just from 2 videos from this channel. You seem a great teacher. Should carry on on the channel.

    My uncle has been plastering for 40 years and says he is relieved there are still people teaching how to do it properly and to keep watching your videos. Any more content coming?

    Extremely well presented short clip video detailing all the fundamentals of applying the first coat of finish plaster. The content and basic principles were clearly demonstrated and as such provided a systematic way to tackle any sized wall.Many thanks for providing these video shorts - they are really valuable learning aids !

      Many thanks Jeff. So glad you could see the purpose of the clip and it is exactly as you described. By following a fixed route without random strokes is as far as I am concerned the most efficient way to achieve a great finish every time. More to follow.

    Absolutely incredible clip and your a really good teacher. I can plaster reasonably well learning from watching RUclips videos but always struggled with correct techniques and tended to drop plaster but after watching all your videos I feel I’ve finally cracked it and can now confidently plaster. 😊

      I struggled a bit in the beginning with dropping plaster everywhere I found that not mixing it to wet helps and also not over loading the trowel and halk and basically slowing down when laying on also helps in a big way👍🏻

      Thank you and yes Colin is my name.. Great news that you would like to build on your plastering knowledge and skills by signing up to one of our courses.. Clips like these still only give you half the information needed to really perfect your practical and product awareness.

    is ceiling always done first or does it matter...perhaps wall first to get a feel for it then ceiling as I imagine the ceiling is harder, thanks

    Is the board you are coating regular drywall since it has bevels? When I hung for a plasterer he used blue board or had me turn the board brown side out. He said that negated the bevel and had better suction.
    Am I remembering correctly?

    • @silvertrowelconstructionsk7537
      @silvertrowelconstructionsk7537  Год назад

      Plaster should only be applied to the ivory side of a British gypsum board.. It even says on the grey side DO NOT Plaster this side.. The coloured boards and normally tapper edge boards so they are for tap and jointers mostly. I was working on an ivory standard board yes..Hence having to fill out the bevel before applying plaster to the whole area etc..

    When you watch a professional do something like frost a cake, plaster a wall, or wrap a present you think "any idiot can do that ", and then you try.
