I've followed this channel for years & this guy must be one of the UK's best decorators! Watch his old videos if you can find them, they're excellent. (The standard of some decorators, especially in the London area, is truly shocking! They turn them out of the colleges, City & Guilds 'qualified', after they haven't even turned up for many of the lessons!)
I always use shellac knotting even before bin or aluminium primer….good idea using the filling blade for stripping…I’ve always used a tomahawk scraper but will def give it a go 👍
Thanks I do use a knotting solution at times. I'd run out so used the B.I.N but it does a good job. I think the Ronseal knot block is the one that fails. Thanks
Beautiful work. Your clients must be so pleased. Thanks again for sharing these videos I really appreciate them all, and always learn something. Happy New Year to you both.
Personally i farr prefer to spot treat knots with shelac knotting rather than BIN. The bin primer doesnt always block knots 100% like the straight shellac does.
Lovely job. Can you do an in depth video on how to keep the pattern on internal corners. I was taught a couple of different ways but I’d like to know your method. Do you overlap and splice? Thanks
Nice. You're showing off your competence well there on laying in that wall paper over the wall plugs and dinging in the screw holes etc as going along along with the sequencing. Makes it look easy (sort of). What went on as the final skirting coats?
Such a nice job, a pleasure to watch. I wondered if there was any reason that you use different zinsser products on coving and skirting? Thanks for your time.
As myself painter & decorator I'm not a fan of painting wood I believe it should be natural yes treat it stain it varnish it. Paint for me stops the wood from breathing
Hi mate. I've been watching you channel for a while. I'm a plasterer by trade but do the occasional decorating job. Id like to think that I'm ok at cutting in ceiling lines etc but I have trouble cutting in architrave to wall my question is what brush do you use etc. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. 👍
Sorry but, you don't patch a hole like that. Doing it that way uses way to much pudy, which means it will shrink and crack for sure but, even more problematic is it will take several days to dry out and longer if you paint it when it's not dry. Better, faster solution is to screw a square of drywall into the hole, then it only needs a skim coat of plaster and bobs your uncle your moving onto another project without getting called back to fix the stinking cracks
Watched so many videos and still can't get it right. Did a 2nd coat on my wall today.. Looks like I've deliberately tried to make it stripey. Fucking nightmare. Given up on painting.
The only way is to keep trying and slightly adjust your ways. Be careful because sometimes it's old paint or the plaster already has marks in it. Rub your hand over the wall. Thanks
@@PaintingandDecorating thanks for your advice. I followed your videos about lining paper and hardstop filler and the seams are invisible. It's my roller skills (lack of) which shows up now. So frustrating. 😩
@@alexthomson7465water your paint down around 5%. It'll give you a bit more time to blend your edges. Sometimes light critical walls and ceilings can cause your paint to "flash" there isn't an awful lot you can do about that apart from keep trying different brands. Remember, you get what you pay for!
@@AspireDecorating thanks for that info! The wall does have light from a door shining all the way across it so it stands out all the more. I'll try watering it down for my next project. 🍻

shellack knotting doesn't guarantee knots will ever bleed through just reduces the chance
👍👍👍. Thank you
Welcome 👍
Wallrock lining paper? And were the drops paste and soak or adhere the wall ? Brilliant job as always. Regards Tom

What went on as the final skirting coats?
absolute perfection. attention to detail is spot on. keep on making excellent videos. you are a credit to your profession
Thank you 👍
Such a nice job, a pleasure to watch.

Thanks for your time.

What genius "fitted" the skirting board?
Did you foam that aerial socket hole before filling?
No need really as never any movement solid wall. Thanks
👍
Thanks 👍
How much did you charge for this job if you dont mind me asking?

It won't shrink and it dries with a chemical reaction so it doesn't take days. Polyfilla
day rate brush 🖌

Great skills but not so great designs choices by the customer
Each to their own. I think the colour scheme works well. Ours is not to question why, ours is but to paint and prime 😂
@@guyrosin4753 yep
It's not the worst I've seen.
Thanks
