Not worth buying

“Not worth buying”

Written on: 20/07/2012

This is expensive, and you need to buy a separate set of tools, and the result isn't impressive. It may be if you were skilled in plastering - but then you wouldn't be buying this! It brought off the (carefully prepared, sanded and cleaned)paint on the wall. Not good. Second coat needed, even then I couldn't get it smooth enough to look good - and I'm not a DIY novice. My tip - either buy Polycell finishing skim (cheaper, no special tools needed,easier to apply, gives just as good a result and can be used on painted walls) or employ a plasterer. I read all the bad reviews but still thought I'd give it a go. Big mistake.
