My dad did his own Artex so we had it everywhere ! If you brushed up against any walls you would end up in A&E 😱🩸🩸🤣🤣🧱👍🏽
If someone doesn't mind amateur workmanship, they will do it just like you. I'm not talking about the method of applying the plaster with a roller, but about the execution. After 11 years of living in England, I realized that the quality and precision of finishing apartments in England is far from the best and people don't care about it. ;) there is acrylic and silicone everywhere, taken off with an elbow. poor or lack of adequate ventilation. so almost everywhere there is fungus and mold. low quality new houses for a lot of money. poor insulation And so the list of defects and the hopeless quality of houses in the UK goes on and on.
King content.
The Germans use this everywhere, it’s not meant to be skimmed. Interestingly if you watch the German video there’s no skimming but the British video does skim it, both these videos are by knauf. Pretty amusing.
It's nice to hear someone in the trade being fairly ambivalent about a new or different way to do a traditional job. I have an old plasterer who does any big jobs for me and he wouldn't even contemplate using anything but gypsum (and yes, he polishes the finish for hours). But when he's advising me on how to do small DIY jobs myself he recommends all the roll-on, easy-skim, Polyfilla-type solutions you could imagine and he gives me great tips on how to get the best finish. Unlike all the plumbers I've ever used who do nothing but criticise every suggestion that doesn't involve soldered copper and also criticise every previous plumber's soldered copper as not being done right.
I'm in Europe. We've been using the Knauf-type stuff for a good 20 years. Initially it came from the USA. You can start the second coat as soon as you've finished the first. I use a standard stainless steel plastering trowel - it's quick and easy. It does polish up, but I prefer to give it a light sanding a day or so later in order to get a perfect uniform fine finish. It's good stuff when you get the hang of it, and is half the price in Europe. Best to seal before painting.
I was smiling throughout this video just imagining how the pro plasterers would react to using a roller! Roger - you certainly like to live dangerously! You even took a swipe at plasters' love of polishing up!
the artex factory used to be in my town, my dad did the stair walls back in the 70's, I had plenty of grazed elbows & knuckles, back before it was banned artex used to tip sacks of asbestos fibres into the mix
Anyone remember early 2000's they used to push that Polycell Smoothover stuff, tub and £30, roller and smoothing tool another £20. You rolled it on, smoothed it over and then had to sand all the lines. It was a completely useless product and yet thousands of people watched the advert and bought it.
Another company trying to reinvent the wheel 🤦♂️
I want to build three different sheds, one is already set up. I am pleased to find all the
Roger is so interesting to listen to. Knows his subject and can communicate so well. Thanks for your videos.
Fascinating video and a brilliant guide. This channel is so bloody good.
Had to laugh when you were on about sanding, it reminded me of a time when me and 2 other plasterers were working on a job in Sunderland. It was a big busy site, but the problem was we hit the wall (Pardon the pun) with work sometimes due to stuff not being ready. Anyway, one day the only thing we could get on with was a basement corridor ceiling, which wasnt very high and all I used to put it on and trowel it was a little milk crate as a hop up (Shhhhhhhh, hehehe, actually, you could get away with that back in the day in terms of H&S), all in all, a joy. Anyway, it was a day all the big wigs turned up for a tour, the client, the architect, our gaffers, the lot, so the site manager was like, you's lot stay down here and do this ceiling. So we slapped it on, and troweled... And troweled... And troweled... AND... Troweled, and troweled, looking busy! :D
I've seen this a couple of times and always dismissed it due to the much higher costs so thank you for covering it!
Hi Roger I am just a keen Diy’er and needed to skim some walls and found that after pva’ing the walls I used a large paste brush to put the plaster on and then used a large trowel to finish and it worked a treat - great useful content as always.
Thanks once again roger for alot more useful tips....all the best
Having had a couple or three homes wet plastered, I too think that this stuff would be good for small areas, or when wallpapered over. To see though the wonderful finish, rule straight lines and surfaces that some plasterers can acheave ( I marvel at their work) I would still keep to that for large areas or when painting (with paint pads) walls.
Used this stuff to do all my house a year ago. Really pleased with finish. I used to use multifinish in the past but had my friend staying from Norway who recommended it.
Bark finish was big in 70s great for covering all the cracks and bumps I remember old Joe doing our lounge in a couple of evenings, one coat of unibond and then on with the plaster , the first extension I built on my house in the 80s me and my brother did bark finish because it was easier and quicker than trying to get a smooth finish
