Plastering with the 0x speedskim

plastering a wall with the ox speedskim

[dilligaf]

I used to use a bit of perspex years ago it was 700mm long and 150mm wide 2 or 3mm thick it was probably the first speed skim ever, I was a bit slow on the up take, missed a trick there I used it to make my job easier didn't realise it would make £££££££ on the market.

Welcome the ox club mark !💪🏽 made a lovely job of that pal you’re very handy with a float 👌🏼🧱👍🏼. You need a perforated brick job now to try out the tongs 😉🧱👍🏼

I once done a full kitchen with a spatula and very little use of the trowel I used that tyzack one and and age trowel worked real well but I felt i had to do it that way as the gear was not waiting for me it was go for that or lose a wall or two was all plasterboard but the plaster was setting fast I must do a video where i use a spat the whole way through it dont feel as normal but can work also, I did finish with a super flex but at that stage the walls are under control :):) Nice video mate glad you getting on well with this

Good job Mark, didn’t know you were a dab hand on the float aswell!🌀🌀👍

Looks a treat Mark, you want a 1200mm one next, easier to flatten 👍👍.
Hope you have a great weekmate 👍

Hi Mark. Great job. Do you use the sponge float or flexi trowel aswell? If so what stages do you use.
Eg first coat, wet trowel, polish trowel etc.

Some job there well done I dont do aney skimin so dont know if there aney good but looks like it makes it easier

[doddsy]

Big thumbs up Mark, well done mate, is there out you cant do then ?

[paulreid]

How long do you leave the plaster before you go over it with the speedskim? Is there not a risk of taking it off the wall if using tool too soon. Nice job by the way mate.

[Mthmthmthmth]

Which model and what size is that mate ?

[Jim_Newlands]

Fair play, Mark. That looks like a real time saver. I don't mind doing a bit of skimming for a bit of variety but I've not tried using one of might just have to go out and buy one now to try it out! I'd be worried about carrying it around in the back of the van just in case it got damaged, I'm assuming it is quite fragile?

[paulmorgan]

Why don't you go straight across the wall first then up I was always taught don't stretch or I'd get a dig in the back arrr still don't stretch still in my head nice to see a lefty 32yrs at the game 👍

[scoyle]

Iike a lot of things skimming is all about timing and that speed skim would definitely help keep you in front of it but have to say that's a good job Mark 👍

When ur handy with a trowel this is no quicker.
With the exception of massive areas.
