One of the hardest skills in plastering is applying the plaster. And I highly recommend that you learn to use a trowel and hawk. However, if you're completely new then I can show you an easier way to get the plaster onto the wall...
And that's with a roller.
It sounds outrageous but this method works and you can actually get good results doing it. You just need to know HOW...
That's what I teach in this video. This is one part in a 5 part series called "Plastering For Beginners Crash Course". We'll show you the full process to plastering so make sure to subscribe so you don't miss any future videos.

After 40 years Marshalltown use i have moved to Nela last 2 years , highly recommend
Thank you - Excellent video
Good to see you again bud great video 👌👌👌
Cheers pal, hope you’re well!
It was great to see you back, I know you have a family and work, but I would love more videos of the work you do, like you used too. Great video, as always, keep up the good work 👏
Thank you matey! It's coming...I'm slowly getting my Mojo back. I have some interesting videos on Lime plastering with Eco insulation so keep an eye out for that. Will be in the next 2 weeks ;)
Best wishes to you my friend, good to see you.
Cheers pal…thanks for watching 👍
What do you use for finishing plaster? Gyproc Skimcoat Plaster? I'm in Ireland myself and spme Gyproc products for some reason are very hard to get.
I tried Knauf Fill and Finish which was good but I wouldn't know how to use it on whole wall as I think it would set too fast.
Air bubbles you got, appear because you've completely sealed the wall, and plaster is not mixed well. Bubbles appear because of continued chemical reaction, and gases don't have any other way to go.
Usually appropriate primer is used in order to adjustable limit soaking into the surface.
If you use not gypsum plaster, you may need to sand, and apply primering paint, before laying finishing layer of plaster.
Which may be a special plastering compound, which doesn't let plaster compact under finish paint.
This will certainly happen when you paint with a good paint for walls.
A primering paint at its stage will compact and fix layer of plaster, preventing its further deformation under chemicals and water of finishing wall paint.
The skimming technique you show seems to be very efficient. Especially combined with foaming.
It is goog to use side light to better see and correct all imperfections appearing in process.
Blaine I'm just about to purchase the tools needed to plaster from a previous video you did. In regards to flattening would you recommend a speedskim or straight edge/Darby? Or are they different things? TIA :)
In your log burner fireplace video you use lime, I'm looking to do a fireplace for a log burner, but looking for a small bag of lime.
Where is the best place to buy it?
The B&Q bag is to big for one small fireplace.
Any ideas?
Great videos, thanks for taking the time to make them 👍
I always get my Lime from Ty Mawr which is in Whales but if you can get a bag from B&Q then go for that
Glad to see you back again!
Cheers pal! Hope you’re well
@@PlasteringForBeginnershi m8 was on job in wimslow where the guy who teaches venetian plastering in Bury or Bolton watched him doing it a lot the materials were italian , was tempted go on 3 day course ! Love watching you and others plaster ❤
Do it mate. It’s great to learn and very therapeutic. Thanks for watching mate 👍
Great videos as always Blane never used that pre grit primer before always use pva or sbr , how long do you have to leave it before plastering will give it a go , keep up the good work mate 👍🏻
I just leave it overnight but depending on temperature, you can plaster the same day 👍
Hi Blaine, I have a small wall in a bathroom which has been covered with Jackoboard, unfortunately it’s off square and I need to fill it and make it square with the bath. What would you recommend to use (Thistle One Coat ?) to fill ? Would you recommend SBR to treat the Jackoboard before plastering or nothing ? I want to tile directly onto this surface !! Thank you very much for your advice. Regards Andy
Thanks mate!
Thanks for watching!
Please can you link to the water brush you use? Thanks
Thanks for the video. You mentioned links to the tools is in the description but I'm not seeing it?
It's in the description pal 👍
Great stuff
Cheers mate!
Yes pleaaaase I need more of these videos. My wall has been left unplastered for 4 years as I’m scared to touch it. I’ve knocked out my wardrobe and there are gaps in where the frames we’re how do I tackle these x
Hopefully this helps pal!
Had nelas before but always get a dodgy one bent wrong way. Use 14x 4 carbon. Can't pick up a permashape anymore it feels too wide now
What size is the Nela ? I have a 16" x 4/34 that was bought for sand cement but not used much. Ive picked up some skimming work , im not a plasterer by the way but have done little bits and helped out my daughter and the work turned out great using a 13 " x 5 " marshalltown but im keen to try the nela as they do feel lovely in the hand.
Hi mate! I’ve used the 14” and it’s a great all rounder - that’s what I recommend pal. Keep up the good work 👍
What is crazy is all this tech in the world and no one hasnt found a easier way of plasterering a wall still using same tools and technics yes materials might be different but method still same as 100 years ago where as every other trade had evolved and had become easier
En casa de herrero cuchillo de palo ( escalones de la escalera )
Hey!, awesome content, keep up the good work, greetings from Mexico.
Thanks pal!!
@@PlasteringForBeginners hey dude you make loads of comments in the video youl leave the links to stuff in the description, but you forgot
You may want to use airless plastering system. Shnek systems are cheap and give a very good result.
I dont know what type of plaster you use, incase if it is not gypsum compound - try shnek system.
I always use roller since my second plastering task.
But it is much better to add a handle stick to it, and work by both hands. Because you need to apply pressure to the wall, when you need to cover fast a wide surface.
And handle saves joints of worker's hands, even if task looks simple.
There is no need for buying it.
Anything will do - a short stick of wood or metal stick from broom.
hey dude you make comments in the video youl leave the links to stuff in the description, but you forgot
It should be there pal 👍
@@PlasteringForBeginners are there any good beginer trowels where i dont need to spend, 60 quid, i will if i need to, ive got a full house refurb and loads of skimming, but as im a noob, im jostling with buying a premium trowel for one house?
Only just started watching but winced a bit at 4:26 when you started to use the stone to round the trowel off. Please anyone doing this keep your fingers well out of the way!!! Don't hold the trowel in your hands I'd say, keep it on a flat surface. If not one slip and there will be a lot of blood.......
Good point
MT carbon or refina imo
👍👍
