Hi .I've been watching your videos for a while now and I've plastered my bathroom with good results . I won't call myself a plasterer but what I will say is my confidence is at a all time high due to you passing on your knowledge. I appreciate tradesmen that took the time to learn their trade and master the tools of the trade . So I would like to give you a big THANKS . Oh and I'll keep on watching your videos even going back to the first one .so yeah THANKS . 😊
Seeing you work by the window was EXTREMELY helpful because it highlighted every mark you were leaving in the plaster during the applying of plaster. Im a complete beginner and often get frustrated with my plastering as it looks 'rough' and I get lots of little air pockets. When I compare myself to your walls I get disheartened as yours always look perfect from the get go. I appreciate youre a pro of course.
But seeing you work by the window with the light coming from the side is ultra useful as its shown me that even your first few passes are not perfect and do look a little closer to mine. A good finish takes time and work is is not achievable from the get go.
Have you considered doing tutorials with lighting from the side? I think you did once but even then it wasnt as good/helpful as this window shot.
I am left handed so should get on ok with this top man a Blaine perfect timing for me a small job around a new back door to plaster. Just rendered the block work so will SBR that and straight onto plaster board. Great videos mate making a frustrating job look easy keep up the good work.👍
Hi am follower, i would suggest if you can make video where there is small spaces and you can not use the trowel, like behind toilet seat, under sink, above the doors very tiny places where you can not use the trowel all the videos on youtube just plane walls or corner or windows hope you can help us
Great video. Can you please do one for internal corners with an angle greater than 90 (obtuse) like you had in the video but didn't get into. I saw you used scrim tape, just wondering about getting a straight line on those when they're in your eye line.
I've seen Gyproc do LevelLine but looks like it's for drywall products.
Completely correct, it is a common thing to find.
👍👍
awesome ❤
Posted this on my insta the other day work to the beads not against
Have you had much experience with joint taping external corner's?
I think it's called ultra tape, with the two metal strips.
I have an old council house that wasn't plastered but joints were taped then papered over. Absolute nightmare to work with.
I was an apprentice plasterer when I left school years ago but I've not done it in nearly 20 years
Your videos are a god send to get me back into it, great stuff m8
The original owner taped and papered the bedrooms, which the builder had left unfinished, in my parent's house. Taking the paper off was a nightmare, but once I resigned myself to painting the wallpaper, the rest was easy. I taped over any visible seams with fiberglass and it took just a couple of coats of mud and a little sanding to bury that. I cut out any bubbles and scrimed & mudded in a # pattern (the horizontal "joints", then the vertical ones overlapping) to cover those up. When I was done, you couldn't easily tell if it was plaster or taped drywall, let alone painted wallpaper.
Actually most plasteres don't come in from the left as you show, they go up and down, how you start laying on from the left is unusual and in my 42 years plastering I've aeen a lot of plasterers, and hardly any of them layon as you do, but you are correct always follow the bead when laying on
Yeah, I suppose you’re right. I do come in from the left…fair play for your time served by the way.
Respect for that! That’s a lot of years! Thanks for the comment, it was great hearing from you. All the best!
Your right mate he's creating a dip from the internal corner.
But everybody's got there own method.
Divit 👍
Blaine, thanks for the video. What do you recommend to prep for plastering over artex. Just moved into a new house and all ceilings are artexed. They have been sucking up the water so quick even after applying PVA.
SBR, don't water it down. Roll it on with a roller , it takes abit longer to dry than pva , but 3 coats should kill all suction on the artex
Hi Blaine, doing my son`s kitchen this week, plasterboarding ceiling and walls, do you PVA your boards prior to multi finish or not ? Cheers mate. Glen.
No need to PVA Board matey 👍
In Samarkand we use rotband knauf plaster. It's white but not red. Which based your plaster?
This is Gypsum based plaster, hence the colour. That’s why it looks different mate 👍
That boy singing is fuckn hillarious 🤣
Hey man, just wanted to know, what is the quirkiest way to get a card for plastering, being that am now 24
To be honest, the only way I know is by doing the college courses. You might find somewhere online but I don’t know a faster way to do it. Is that for site work??
How do you deal with walls that already have a bead fitted but the wall requires re-plastering. Can you add another bead on bead to work to?
Yeah mate…just add another bead my friend 👍
Good tips there mate, is that a carbon nela your using?
Thank you mate. And yes it is - I love it. Great trowel and breaks in rapid. It’s a lot stiffer than most trowels though so beware of that 👍
No more MT! - is the Nela the best to go for or stick to Mt permashape
I think MT have lost their way a little bit. The trowels aren’t what they used to be. They feel flimsy to me, (just my opinion. Don’t take it as Gospel).
I’m really liking the Nela trowels though. Solid and wear well. Try it 👍
Why don't you scrim your beads in dryling we always scrim beads
It’s not what’s necessary with this plaster. It’s a lot stronger than standard Joint compound and has a thicker coat which can take more movement than dry lining products.
But I do use scrim around Skylights/ free standing corners, (however they tend to crack regardless because of the movement in the timber.
Always fill your beads first
Glad I’m doing it right then lol
Good man 👍👍
