[@chrisowen8664]

Hi Im a semiretired decorator and i think your a good tradesman who comes out with very good idea's .I will keep looking out your video's ,because your never to old to learn from others .Thanks Chris 👍

[@AspireDecorating]

Didn't realise they did this in a tub. Got myself a 20kg job this morning happy days. Definitely leaning more to pre mixed fillers these days, no messing about knocking them up and having to clean mixing bowls. Cheers Dan. 👍

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Fantastic mate. It's alot quicker

[@jjimhotmail]

Toupret stuff is so much better than others, thanks for the video

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

No problem mate 👍🏻

[@neilgraves5069]

Your a sound bloke Daniel . Ive learned loads of you buddy thank you .

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Cheers mate thakyou so much 👍🏻

[@stuart1984]

Excellent. Sometime could you do a whole video about the best technique to repair hairline cracks in walls/ceilings from start to finish? Thanks!

[@orbitalforest]

Toupret products are great , i like to use Fibafuse tape on bad cracks along with Toupret , bomb proof for repairs.

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

I've yet to try Fibafuse I've heard great things about it

[@harleymac6308]

So glad to have found your channel. Lots of great tips. Thank you 👍

[@danielnugent2168]

Thankyou so much. Very kind

[@richardmcdougall233]

Toupret fillers are different class to everything else no grinning through worth weight in gold also the toupret lightweight filler best by far

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Love the Toupret range mate 100 percent agree with you 👍🏻

[@lifeisforlivingfullstop9113]

Never use anything else mate !!!

[@DaveBoothroyd-ej5in]

Those cracks look like someone has driven a JCB into the house - either that or there's subsidence.

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Haha. I think they had new plaster skim over old plaster and it wasn't bonded properly As I tapped it alot sounded hollow where it has blown

[@RichardDowd]

Ooh, I'd missed this one. Defo one im going try next time, I realised what a PITA the powder is recently with mess and drying out etc. Dan Nugent - Professional Crack filler!

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Hahahaha

[@alexthomson7465]

Toupret is brilliant. No shrinking, no cracking. I used it on some major cracks in between ceiling and wall and it's perfect. And I am far from professional! No need to prime either

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

The best out there

Toupret is the nuts...

100 percent mate

[@mimimomo3089]

Daniel have you ever tried a Refina flex trowel. It’s an absolute game changer and found there is no need to sand down

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Fantastic. I'll look into that mate cheers

[@lifeisforlivingfullstop9113]

Not used the ready mixed Dan, does it dry as quick as mixing it yourself ?

[@peteramond3358]

Dry time daniel

[@stuartpietzka9148]

This stuff sinks a bit much. Wish there was a good readymixed that didnt

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Yes it's a two skim job minimum. I agree but nothing on the market yet

[@garethdavies7564]

i done my landing wall with this stuff as it was a mess it come out lovely...but can you skim over artex ceiling with silk paint on it?

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Mate its so much quicker it's a game changer

[@garethdavies7564]

@@danielnugentpainteranddeco557 any tips on skimming with this product over artex with vinyl slik paint have i got to lightly sand the ceiling first?

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

@@garethdavies7564 Yes I would do. Also maybe roller a coat of PVA frist ad that's what plasterers do when skimming over Artex

[@robsoddjobs192]

Great stuff Dan thanks mate. I know you have the Mirka deros which I’ve also bought but how are you sanding corners and square edges is it by hand still?

[@davewright9312]

The mirka handy is great for corners...it is a hand sander but is still dust free..I also use it for filler especially joint fill and skim as used here and easy fill as the derus can take a bit much out..

[@t.dizzle83]

How’s does it compare to the ready mixed easi fill i wonder… Iv been using tub fillers for years now, just always have one on the van… just take what u need never put back in the tub what you’ve taken out just bin it.

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Hi mate. This is defo a 2 skim filler but usually for deeper holes I use Easyfill 20 for 1st coat then use this over it for the 2nd skim. You get great results so I'd keep both on board the van.

[@TheOlzee]

Hey fella does this readymade filler keep well overtime or dry out?

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Hi mate. This is great for second skimming or if your using it like I did then 2 skims minimum I usually do deep holes with Easyfill 20 then use this to second skim

[@TheOlzee]

@@danielnugentpainteranddeco557 cheers mate. I mean does it stay moist after you’ve opened it over time (weeks/months) or does it dry up

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

​@@TheOlzeeit's good mate. That's a 20k tub and never dried up. Always seal tight after each use

[@davewright9312]

Hi Dan...dont you find that the pre mix of joint fill and skim is slower to dry off than the powder mix ? I use the joint fill skim all the time and have used the pre mix and thata what i found

[@davewright9312]

Apologies...the stuff you have is the standard..the stuff I tried was the toupret fine surface filler which was slow to dry

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Yes mate it takes longer but handy for jobs with alot of filling. I always have a fan heater on aswell as it helps

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

@@davewright9312 yes I always use Easyfill 20 and even Toupret Murex for deep holes but Murex is almost impossible to rub down so don't fill it proud

[@callumpainterNE]

I usually use toupret tx110 but what's the drying time like on this buddy

[@danielnugentpainteranddeco557]

Slower but with a fan heater it's good

[@callumpainterNE]

​@danielnugentpainteranddeco557 legend mate, only picked the toupret smoothing by accident but thought meh I'll use it somewhere but it's the worst haha. Only worth using to face up some walls
