I would have had that window taped, double coat painted, my tools cleaned and lunch eaten by the time those 4 edges were taped…

I like the channel for some reason but jeez that was a hard watch. It's cringe, the cringe smile, the cringe talking to us from less than a foot away. The waffle OMG. Re the question about non woven, best not after you've said many times to butt join! Just doing sons fibreliner tomorrow...again your waffling

Cure the damp problem. Let dry out . Decorate as normal. Don't cover the problem up.😮

Does it get alot of pin holes in it when going over itself? I once used the toupret one and it looked like someone had been chucking darts at it when the 2nd pass had gone off! That was a fair few years ago mind you, they've probably come a long way since then.

I bought some this. Was impressed. Wasn't impressed at the price of that smoother blade absolute rip off

Just a question... Why would one choose to use lining paper before painting instead of using latest rollable and sandable wall skims?

Hi, I have mold on my wall I have removed this and treated the wall, with this paint would I need to put a mold free undercoat to please. Or does this tin do all the Job.

"now I'm going to put it out there I'm going to ask the question nonwoven paste the wallpapers do you notice a slight pullback shrink back when you're using them this is to all the professional decorators" Not a "professional decorator" just a paperhanger but no, no pullback here when using non wovens either pasting the wall or pasting the paper. Non wovens are marketed to homeowners as dimensionally stable, faster and easier to hang, no pasting table or paperhanger required but that's all clever marketing to sell more paper to more homeowners and little or none of it is true but if you buy into the marketing speil then your going to have shrinkback at the seams. Haven't you noticed the same manufacturers who recommend painting dark background stripes at the seams in case of shrinkage are the same manufacturers who market their non woven-paste the wall - wallpapers and liners as dimensionally stable, blah blah blah. Both can't be true, if it's dimensionally stable as they claim it won't shrink. If its not you have been conned into paying a premium price for a product that doesn't (and more importantly) can't be dimensionally stable, as in 0% shrinkage. As a problem solving liner Wallrock is an exceptionally good product, its not perfect but when it's necessary it's the one I go for. If i don't have a problem surface Pulp is king and its my go too liner for many reasons. YMMV and that's ok too.

Farrow and ball always looks like it could do with an extra coat even with the correct primer shade . I prefer the little green paint product s.

As it got any thermal qualitys

Have you tried the Coo-Var anti condensation paint Phil? If so how did you get on with it?

It’s amazing how many don’t seem to watch vides before leaving a clever comment.🤷‍♂️

Buy a large bag of Plasterboard taping/jointing compound (the Lafarge one is good) and scrape/float it all over the wall great for beginners as you can sand it (any ridges or mistakes flat wear a mask) now you have a flat wall and emulsion it!

Great content Phil. Cross lining was meant to reduce shrinkage of the finish wall covering as it’s expanding in opposing directions .

Wallrock I love it

Any particular reason why you don’t use the wider rolls. If your wall is 3m wide you would only have 3 drops as apposed to six with the narrower rolls

Phil you ever tried wetting the back makes it much more pliable like some muraspecs,so much easier

"..210 is the key number...The wallrock fibreliner smooth, that was a 150, that's all to do with the grade, the thickness of the paper" No it isn't, the numbers 210 and 150 has nothing to do with the thickness of the paper. It's the weight of the paper given as grams per square metre, GSM (Grammage) which is the metric standard of paperweight. The weight of Ultracover fibreliner is 210gsm. The weight of fibreliner smooth is 150gsm The thickness of Ultracover fibreliner 210 is 0.48mm. The thickness of fibreliner 150 smooth is 0.278mm(say 0.30mm).

Never had a pullback with the recommended Wallrock adhesive to be fair.

If wallpaper is going on top of the lining paper why is the lining not crosslined ?

Would this be better than the roll on plaster you showed the other day?

Great video again 👍, with the gap, on shops, especially with lumpy taped walls, we would seal and thenput a very fine fill before painting. We also filled the edge, if we stopped on a wall to feather it out and hide them. I no longer work on many shops but that is where I learned to fiberline

“No need for a plaster” 😡🤮The material is called PLASTER and the tradesman applying it is called a PLASTERER. NUMPTY😂

Been thinking of getting one of these but sure now plus it’s not free delivery it’s £59 plus £10 delivery

House bashers will love it but not professionals

In the 60s, I used to mix denture plaster with artex to get the same result. Why is this considered as a new idea?

Great product

Have you ever done a masking tape review , say with all the so called top tapes and different surfaces and colour tapes for precision, would be interesting as I’m so torn now which brand to use for different scenarios

This looks a much better alternative to tape and join. Having said that, you cant beat multi-finish end product- if money is not an issue, I go for multi-finish plastering anytime mates!! By the way, I am not a plaster. I am a woman who like a good and proven outcome.

As a grandson of a plasterer amd electrician il always pay that bit more for contractors it helps put food on the table of a fellow working man like customers do for me. Its hard being a tradesman or woman so im just like that and also you get a professional job and if you love your country like i do il always help keep her going. This is interesting stuff but not my cuppa tea. RESPECT TO EVERY CONTRACTOR TRADESMAN AND WOMAN OUT THERE. YOU HELP KEEP THE WORKD GOING ROUND.

I’d have that skimmed and finish in just over 2 hours no messing about and no sanding, all this stuff is is joint filler it’s been around for years nothing new just another reinvented product.

It wont work on bricks....yes on boards certainly

Can you use this over paint ? Or does it need to be unpainted plaster?

Is this recommended to do in a summer time or it doesn’t matter ..?

Utter nonsense plastering is the future

Hi Phil, like you got all the qualifications, taught at a large FE College, and been self employed. This is a bit left field, but until I tried it I was very sceptical. I had a large gap between skirting and wall to fill, so for some reason I decided to use Wickes Instant Grab Adhesive (solvent free), instead of all the Caulks I had tried. Have to say, it worked so well, I use it most of the time for frames, skirting etc. No cracking at all, so solid, and solvent free. Just give it a try and let me know.

will this work over top of damp stop

In Australia we have worked out that there is no need to apply plaster to the entire surface. We only apply jointing compound over the taped joints. The rest is left bare. If you apply compound over the entire wall, you are vastly increasing the time and expense involved, while creating a surface that is likely to crack and will need to be replastered a few years down the track. It's a waste of time and money.

As long as the tape is not covering the whole side, it's not gonna be worth it, the problem is there's a plastic that is securing the tape inside, hence is the gap.

Hate the flippin voice over !

I always found them easy, but you have to be busy.

nice vid..really love this paint..designer sheens with a very durable finish, gave the bathroom a gallery studio look in eggshell and satin, yet it's extremely resistant to the moisture.

Petit pois 😂😂😂😂🤢🤢

naja , how does it look on a 40-year-old living room wall that is not so straight and has been wallpapered and stripped a few times,and I would love to see a close up of the finish when its dry. I would love to have has a closer look at his tools. But it looked nice and smooth -wet. .Spraying or rolling walls is not new. The Germans have towers full readymixed gips plaster delivered to their sites and then a contractor spray finishes the walls. Highly efficient. It is no good for small jobs though.
