EXPERIMENT | Can You Roll PLASTER Onto A Wall?? "I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS WORKS!!"...

I'm 64 y.o. living here on the west coast of Ireland, doing up an old farmers cottage... I've done EVERYTHING, rewiring, re-plumbing, lowered all the ceilings, installed rigid insulation, I am even building my own kitchen cabinets including shaker doors .... as I said.. everything !! 😂 I also wanted to plaster my own walls too (I know... a glutton for punishment 🙄) but I knew I hadn't got the necessary experience & haven't the time to build that experience... THIS will be my method !! I've seen american vids of guys using jointing compound to do this, but then scraping most of it back off ! This looks doable for me, the professionals may have a conniption but I'll be happy to say its all my own work... 🤗 Thank you for the demo... a sub & a like from me sir... 😏 😎👍☘️🍺

Oh my god thank you. I wondered if you could roller plaster as I’ve tried it in the past and just can’t (my dad, bless him, was great at it and tried to teach me). You’ve just saved our bacon - and valuable cash and time. We’ve just bought an old cottage and there’s so much needs doing and trades are booked up til the winter. Fantastic.

[@cameronluangrath]

I’m actually a plasterer myself from NZ I roll plaster on using a 15mm nap and this way it creates even distribution of plaster and it minimises bubbles since you and rolling it in instead of trying to use a trowel to apply it. Definitely best and easiest process for skimming in my opinion! Great video and explanation

[@LeeLimerick]

When I roller walls with paint, I always put the roller on an extension where space allows. It saves a lot of effort and you're handling it with both hands, so with the weight of plaster on the roller, it should be even more benefit. Might give this a try.

[@michaelhoare5291]

I'm 65 and over the years have turned my hand to most things property DIY with pretty good results, but I always left plastering to the profs. But with the cost of materials and prof rates having soared, with my latest flip project I took on plastering, watched your vids and signed up to your course. My first attempt was a bathroom which I was going to fully tile so it made for a good first try. My problem was not being able to work fast enough, and my mixes were going off, on the walls and in the bucket. Speed-Skimming (your recommendation) helped. I'm now creating a fourth bedroom including reboarding a water damaged ceiling, and was leaning towards Knauf Airless which can be rolled on, in preference to Fill & Finish-ing joints and painting straight on to the plasterbourd. Having watched this vid I'm now going to go with rolling on the plaster and Speed-Skimming. Hats off to you Blane for challenging traditional techniques and giving us non-prof DIYers alternative methods.

Thanks so much for this. Got me out of a real hole. Had 2 large ceilings to get in before the kitchen fitters came. I'm a bricklayer not plasterer, so am not fast enough or conditioned enough to do it.

[@francoislama8324]

it is important to analyze what you see; Plastering is basically 2 operations : a. spreading the Plaster onto the wall b. finishing it Operation a. is relatively simple you can use any method you wish : you can spray it, apply it with a roller or a paint dispenser, etc. The difficulty is operation b. Finishing the surface : this requires Plasterers with Very Long Experience using various tools to smooth it and to press it against the surface. There are various techniques for applying and finishing depending on the final thickness required. Viewers should not be misled : This is no easy job ; finishing a Wall requires experience, Muscle Power and the use of a multitude of techniques acquired only through long and hard work. This is no DIYers work. Various special materials and tools have been developed to simplify the work, but it needs a few years experience to produce the perfect walls. I always appreciate the incredible work and sweat that Artisans invest in producing beautiful wall finishes. These Artisans should always be identified and their work appreciated

Most reskims plasterers get called to the walls are far to battered for this to work. Half the wall back to brick, distemper paint, cracking, angle beads etc rule this out completely. The one application could be new plasterboard but then if you want to DIY it, might as well use tapered board and tape and joint.
