Probably for any guys who do plastering so bear with,
Had a mate who popped round with his son to ask some advise about skimming a ceiling which his son had done and was asking for advice, I suggested he was putting the plaster on to soon and the pva was mixing with it and causing him problems, ok I'll pop round and have a look.
Could'nt believe what I saw, he had put the first coat of finish on the previous day let it go off, then expected to put his second on the following day.
The wall to ceiling lines were bulked with finish, the ceiling roses were covered with finish and had not been loosened and it was all over the place, the point is he is going to start his second year at college and what has he learned in his first year.
He just did'nt have a clue, so whats happening with the college training.
I've met guys who have done a short course and they are far better.
Did say I'd pop round when he starts the ceiling again just to give some advise and probably get my hands dusty.:svengo:
