    Muck. This stuff doesnt work. It leaves air holes all over the place for a start. If you have a mixture of emulsioned walls and plaster then it vures quicker on the plaster and then leaves mounds in the plastered places; big mounds. Awful stuff. Easier to plaster the walls I reckon as plasters a lot thinner in consistency. Its just harder to sand plaster down than this. -5/5

    I bought the Polycell Smoothover Your Damaged Walls before reading the reviews and had I not already taken it over to Holland to use, I may have taken it back to the shop. However after giving it a go I was very pleasantly surprised. The roller and spreading tool fitted in the 5 litre container and I found both to be usable, roller for large areas and spreader for smaller. The only difficulty I had was where the surface plaster was loose, as the consistency of the smoothover would actually pull ...

    we thought Polycell SmoothOver Your Damaged Walls was a complete waste of money didn't do the job, was too thick to spread over properly and made the walls worse than they were before

    Polycell SmoothOver is a terrible product as far as I'm concerned and really wish I had looked at some reviews before I wasted my money on it. Certainly is not easy to use and it all sounded so simple too. Impossible to smooth over without getting patchy bits - in fact I think my walls were a lot smoother before I put this stuff on - now having to re-sand the whole wall - thankfully I have only used it on a test area and will not be using it on the rest of my walls. Very disappointed in this ...

    Polycell SmoothOver Your Damaged Walls is for experienced DIY ers only, anyone can not use it as led to believe.The product is far to thick in consistency and sets on the so called smart smoother,which you can't dip in the tub of smooth over anyway. Why put a tool on the market that doesn't work with what it is meant to, pollycell surely have tested this product ,so why is it out there on sale at a stupid price when it clearly isn't as it seems.

    I was keen to try this on some very old cracked and uneven plaster in a room we're redecorating. The surface is a mixture of old bluish plaster (with horsehair!), patches of old filler, and powdery pink plaster. I bought the Smoothover, then my partner was told by someone he works with that it was difficult to use, then I read the reviews - I was very tempted not to try it!However, not wanting the old man to say "I told you so", I said I'd give it a go. Having wrestled the top off I found that t ...

    We're currently giving our bathroom a much needed make over. One of the walls is not tiled and had some marks on it. After hearing about Polycell SmoothOver Your Damaged Walls, I though I'd give it a try. I wish I had not bothered!

    My first down point is that when you buy the tub, you're not done yet. You also need to buy the tool separately! Unfortunately it doesn't get much better when you start using it. The tool doesn't fit in the tub, which makes getting the SmoothOver on the tool very m ...
