    back in the day we were a 3/1 gang and we tested a lot of the plasters you use today. BG use to pay us for reports on their new products which included hardwall and multi finish. the multi was shocking on plasterboard and you couldn't trowel it up ( long before plastic trowels) The hard wall wouldn't bind to concrete lintels and sheered off. we used to use plaster mixing machines called "jodi mixers" which looked like a wheely bin but could mix continuously all day long. You just poured it in dry at the back and mechanical paddles mixed it with water and poured it on our mega spot board. We could put 80 bags through in a morning and turn round and skim it in the afternoon. we were proper price work bandits. we used to mix 4 bags of multi in a black bin with one bag of carlite finish to hold it back which gave you another hour on the troweling up. we had to keep an eye on the clerk of works (don't think they have them anymore) who would get you thrown off site if they caught you but back in the days of £2.90 float and skim it was needed to make money so guess we were path finders for you guys :)

Good advice and explanation of method as always!

    Great guy, great plasterer. But interesting fact, gypsum was a byproduct from coal combustion processes. Instead of throwing it away they sold it as a material to put on your wall.
    Yer need to come over from the dark side mate and use clay and lime plasters, gypsum is suited for ornamental work like a Pharaohs sarcophagus not a home that living people inhabit

Lady was a broke nurse so I said I'd do the whole thing for only a small percentage more! Unfortunately when I took the old (asbestos?) plaster away it revealed joists destroyed by woodworm! So three days extra work for a pittance!

    Kirk, ive been plastering for forty years. I always cover up any furniture, worktops, carpets and anywhere i walk. I didn't see a dust sheet on the cupboards. Dont you get your ear bent by the customer for not covering up?

    • @Onthetrowel
      @Onthetrowel  День назад

      Not if it's been damaged by the water and is being replaced mate no.
      That said, most jobs I don't really drop much so it's quicker for me to wipe the odd plop up rather than sheet everything.
      You usually find that sheets make more dust if they have been used.
      So you end up thinking, do I buy new sheets every job and cost more.
      Where can you shake them off that doesn't upset anyone. Who will wash them without breaking the wash mashine.
      So it all depends on the job for me. If it's a carpet that's staying then I'll sheet it up but like I said I don't hardly drop anything mate

      Hi buddy, you can use something called plaster spots. You peel them off like a sticker, put them where you need the mark and they will bleed through the top coat, showing you where the hole is. Some people break a match stick and skim over them, they dry out a bit and you can see roughly where they are. I use a tape , up from the floor and off of fixed point (architrave or whatever) and scribble the measured points down, always find the screw hole that way personally.
