Despite having seen it so many times, I will never stop being amazed by the pink plaster, something unique of the UK and unheard of everywhere else in the world.
There is red gypsum from Texas that we used to use back in the early 1990s to plaster when the Southwest look was popular. Not so any more. Grays and sandy browns are popula now. Or bright white. We usually we use normal white finish plaster and use a 1-2 gallon latex paint tint formula per 4.5 gallon pail of mixed plaster to achieve the desired color of plaster. Seal it with Ocon, or wax. Or both.
I don't normal watch plastering videos but you are absolutely spot on. Great video. A*
Thanks for your feedback and watching the video. Especially for someone that doesn’t watch this type of content. It’s much appreciated.
Small bit of bonding in mix gives lovely colour
This has really helped with my plastering as well as timings betwen coats plus when to begin wet trowelling. Also when to pilish right towards the end
Top Advice 👌
Loved the brutal honesty of the last tip. Another good vid mate I’m learning a lot from you. Thanks man you’re a legend
Thanks for your feedback on the video and sticking to the end. The support for the channel is much appreciated
Great video, great tips and top quality work 👌🏻
Excellent video, Great advice
Great vid Alex especially the last 987th tip
All plaster goes through that ugly drying out stage coz some bits will be thicker than others in my experience especially filling out beads and tapered boards as long as it’s flat at that right stage and u got sharp edges and angles u never get complaints, my technique is pretty much identical to how u plaster except I use a Nela plastic 16inch to finish instead of metal, I don’t understand how some plasterers always complain about others techniques and that, many ways to skin a cat, I do like your helpful tips 👍
Solid advice
Thanks for your comment. If you have any further advice that I can add to the channel please let me know
@@AlexMorleyPlastering I am currently plastering an entire house as an experienced DIYer and the first wall came out great but isn't completely flat. Do you have advice or tips on the technique to flatten the wall nicely please Alex? The look at the wall looks great, nice and neat and smooth surface but has some ripples where I simply didn't flatten properly.
I'd really benefit from guidance on how much pressure and what angle is best for the trowel at the different stages please 👍🏻
Yes Alex back with a bang
Been pretty tough going on my end. Back to back work for months and months. Steadying out now thankfully. Hoping to get back to the weekly’s moving forward. Thanks so much for your patience and support.

👊👍
great stuff
How come you’re on the stainless mate
Just breaking one in for the channel for a future video. Nothing exciting
Nice vid
Great video Alex and something I have always wondered about. One question you mention spat and speedskim. Can you use the Speedskim for both flattenings if needed? Or is a metal blade better for second flatten?
I use the spat for both. I just close the plaster in on the second before doing the first wet trowel.

Hello. I watch your videos and want to ask a question. Do you putty the walls before painting? Do you then treat them with abrasive paper or prime and paint them immediately? You don't paint the walls yourself, do other people do it? It would be useful for me to have answers to your questions. Thank you
In the UK plasterers apply a gypsum based product which leaves a hard smooth like shell over the walls which can be painted directly onto no sanding required.
Thanks for the answer. And then do you paint the walls? And regarding the drywall joints, I see that you do not use special putties for drywall joints, but seal everything with a multifinish with mesh. Is it reliable? Do the cracks not appear later? We putty the drywall joints with Knauf uniflot putty and then glue fiberglass or tape for kurt joints from Knauf or other manufacturers. Thank you

Any tips on how to take the swelling out of the bristles on my good splash brush? I don't want to trim it down because it is new enough. I have it soaking in a bucket of clean of water to see if it helps. Thanks for the videos
I have the same issue. Best suggestion keep one brush for cleaning only. And another as a splash brush that you don’t wipe on the wall. That way it will last ages.
It’s the constant scrubbing when cleaning with them which matts them up.
@@AlexMorleyPlastering cheers mate
Freshly laid on plaster is one of the most beautiful colours. Shame when its starts going off and goes darker.
So nice I hunted down a very close shade and painted the walls with it haha
@@wr3099😂 I don’t blame you it’s a great colour. We get loads of customers that say they want to keep it that colour.
Crocs ? Stainless steel trowel ? what's going on here
Crocs…. Comfort in the old age.
SS. Just breaking on in for the channel tbh. Will be changing it again at some point. Great spot with your eagle eyes. 😎💪
@AlexMorleyPlastering I'm just messing budd keep the content coming your videos are grate,
Us plasterers got them sharp Eagle eyes 😂😂 have a good one Alex
All the best
Liam
A plastic trowel can help with the colour too
AND HORRENDOUS RIPPLES AND SNAKE STRIPES.... LOL
@@user_unknown1488 yeah definitely not for flattening 👍 that would replace one problem for another. The plazzi does get the moisture off the wall though.
@@joedainton2189 tell that to the #NEWBS leaving terrible jobs....
Do your crocks have steel toe caps 😂
👀👀👀 if it looks like they do from the video let’s just assume they do. 😂😂😂
Come on man- don’t sell your soul.
You’re a half decent spread
question we all ask? sre you gay?
BIGOT!
Stupid question that's only come out your mouth. Are u gay?
Can you spell😂😂😂😂
Question is why do you care, and what's it got to do with the subject of plastering?
😂 funny I do get asked that from time to time. I’m not, but thanks for asking the question.
