Fibre lining, paints worst nightmare, ya dealt with it in the end mate. Top man, top job. 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@hamiltonlowry1018]

Top job Now it’s all done you can mark it of your bucket list 😜 and sit back and raise a glass of wine to all your hard work

[@johnnyoldskool6504]

You deserve a couple of cold beers after that one sir, what a difference you have made to that room,really well done 👍

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thanks.. glad they don't all come like that.. but satisfaction getting it looking good.

[@agrafes6]

Mixing paint with the powered filler!!!! What a crack’in idea 💡 Why didn’t I think of doing that. 👏👏 💂‍♂️🇬🇧🇺🇦

[@PaintingandDecorating]

It's something we've picked up over the years.. thanks

[@chris-townson]

What a quality job that is. Cutting in is superb! I couldn't get the skirting that good in a million years. I've also struggled with fibreliner. As you say the surface furrs up when sanding the joins. I've also found it doesn't soak up the paint properly too. I've had little knocks to the surface and the paint comes off in flakes due to the flex in the thermal liner. Perhaps it's the quick dry emulsion that's not allowing it time to be absorbed into the fibres.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. yes to many issues with it. My jobs work like clockwork usually.. but some of these new materiels are not worth the money and the issues they cause. Never had problems in the past and now it seams like more problems than ever. Sticking to old school methods with no problems.. odd good paint that has come out like Zinsser B.I.N and some water based satin.

[@chris-townson]

@@PaintingandDecorating apparently a coat of Zinnser Gardz will seal the fibres, then fill and sand the whole wall. Not a quick process!

Top job that ! Would love to have seen how you load the brush on them skirtings you made it look so easy ..

[@christianf1607]

what a transformationfrom how it started, I did a job recently with the same paint polished pebble and it looked tottaly different. goes to show how light effects the paint color. it looked slightly lilac on my job

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. I know what you mean at points I thought it looked lilac.

[@edwarddown448]

for painting you can get fibreliner smooth but i just use the ordinary stuff you used and give a quick sand of the first coat with a drywall sander and you get good results

[@sdsad6560]

Wow great job my house is bit like that lots if hidden jobs to be done I've started using backplates to finish off switch's they make nice finish:)

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. yes back plates just help keep the paint clean and do finish it off.

[@matthewcalder4351]

Looks lovely m8, and the way u cut the tops of those skirting boards was pure skill u made look a piece of p1555 ! 👍

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. not easy using water based finish.. oil flows better.

[@swatts66]

Never had any issues with Fibreliner personally. It does Fur up but usually fly over it with 240 grit on the mirka after first coat and it's so smooth. If you are hand sanding then definitely get the smooth in future if painting. Think your issue with filling showing etc is more likely to do with the shit paint than the wallpaper.

[@gregmunro2121]

Is the valspar satinwood your go to water based trim paint? What do you use for under coat, cheers. Great job as always

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes found it flows nice and leaves a good finish.. some other are okay... some leave too many brush marks..

[@toria-j]

I've used that Fibreliner in a few spots to cover really rough walls. I fine filled the joints after and they were OK, but you're right about the surface being a bit rough.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes the surface just doesn't like paint.. normal lining seams to absorb the paint better. Thanks

[@toria-j]

@@PaintingandDecorating also a great job. Completely different room. Did that one can of Polished Pebble do the whole thing?

[@blotontheland]

Hi Great vid, I had the same problem with the fibre paper and ended up cross lining the walls a second time.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you. Yes I won't be using it again. Original lining paper for me from now on..

[@miker8149]

👍👍 Problematic walls, but came up good, thanks for the vid

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes totally.. your welcome thanks

[@adammac4960]

Good job mate as per just got a problem on one of my jobs a problem that has happened before but just want some piece of mind. I have been painting a staircase extension. New plastered ceiling and walls. Mist coated it as per but the customer wanted vinyl silk. The walls are fine but the ceiling has got small bubbles on it. I thought it was to do with the heat because they took the radiator out which is the only source of heat. The filler took a while to dry also which sort of backs up my claim. I was hopeing they would fry out as I jumped on another job and was away for four days but I’ve came back there still there. It’s only the ceiling the walls are fine. I’m going to stick my heater back in all day and see if they fry back but any chance you could give me piece of mind? Like I said it was new plaster so nothing to do with paint defect and the ceiling was prepped properly. It has happened before but in an old building so just put that down to moisture

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you... That's a difficult one... does not sound like a drying issue through lack of heat. It may be because its going on a mist coat and drying to fast on the ceiling creating trapped air which makes bubbles.. I would sand it and re coat.. don't think they will dry back.. thanks

[@stevenmcfarlane8831]

Hi, did you buy the wallrock smooth? I buy that particular one and have no issues. I find it better than lining paper. Two coats of Tikkurila optiva 5 or Armstead durable Matt , good results. Bin that DIY paint mate. Get Tikkurila , Dulux or Armstead.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Did not know they do two types.. but won't be using any fibre lining again it's not as good as the original paper. Thanks

[@andrewmcgeorge7820]

Lovely job. Lot of hard works tbh. Dustless sander?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you... walls are so uneven would not want to put a electric sander over them..

[@LS-td3dz]

Fantastic result, I bet you are glad to have that job behind you now, it wasn't a straightforward job at all was it.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Thank you.. yes that was a difficult job..

[@geoffreycasey875]

Hope your ok...I haven't seen you uploading any new videos in a few weeks..👍🇮🇪🍀

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Yes all good thanks.. been moving so just on hold at the minute... Will get back to it soon.. thanks

[@en53kff]

I have just had two rolls of the KV600 insulation delivered and also the fibreliner to be put up next week. Now then... do I take a hit for £40 and not use the fibreliner and use normal lining paper ? 🤔 Yes, I shall be painting it.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

I would use normal lining paper with ready mixed extra strong paste.. especially if you're just painting. Never known a lining to be so difficult to fill and paint... 3 coats and it does not look as good as normal lining paper that has only had two coats.. thanks

[@en53kff]

@@PaintingandDecorating Thanks bud. Will take your advice. 👍🏻

[@zeldagoblin]

How's it going? I've used kv600 in all my rooms for the ceilings and outside walls, and I can now hear my home. I'm so happy I discovered it. I filled and painted straight on to it, and even papered some walls without issue. If I needed to, I'd use it again.

[@en53kff]

@@zeldagoblin I've used KV600 in one room so far and lined it with ordinary lining paper. I didn't do the ceiling with it, just the walls. Painted it with emulsion and it's looking good. No real issues. I can appreciate what others have said about how quickly the room feels warm once the heating is on. In time I am going to use it on my other rooms, on the outer walls. It is quite an expensive outlay initially but I'm sure it will pay dividends in the long run, especially as heating costs soar. Given the choice I would use it again. 👍🏻. 😊

Towards the end it's like your camera's saying "Wait a minute, I'm used to filming imperfections, cracks, damage, crumbling masonry, scratches, gaps and all sorts of smashed-up wreckage......now I'm focusing on a perfect, white sheet of paper - I'm confused!"

[@jake9545]

Is this factory primed skirting? Was there no need for undercoat?

[@PaintingandDecorating]

No... think its a water based gloss.. so it just needed sanding down to key the surface and two coats of satin. Thanks

How long did the job take you.😀

Too long..

How did ya find that retail paint

[@PaintingandDecorating]

It was okay but prefer the Valspar trade.. just as hardwaring but leaves a better finish.

[@CherDele]

WaW.❤

[@jasonStockhill]

You Should know better. That Filler will flash all day long. Should of used a mirka after a mist coat. Then decorate.

[@PaintingandDecorating]

Wrong... it never happens on normal lining paper.. just don't use fiber liner that's what I've learned.. no more problems. Thanks

[@jasonStockhill]

@@PaintingandDecorating but fibre liner is not normal paper. Hence you should know better.....using fibre liner, then expecting it to act like normal paper. It doesn't happen. Hence all your problems..
