Clearly, a very talented and educated plasterer. The UK needs more men like this. Experienced, knowledgable, and very well skilled. Not some "Joe" who's done a two week course, who make out they're a master tradesman! I'm a time served joiner, and I've worked with countless plasterers down the years. A good plasterer like this man, doesn't have plaster on his head, up his arms, or ALL over the floor! Great video! This man is a credit to his trade.
My problem as a newbie is fannying about with it too much on the first coat. Need to learn just to batter it on and worry about getting it flat later. Halfway through my gear starts to go off in the bucket.
this is a great training video. i can imagine those young workers fighting to sit down. than getting dust in their faces. lol. than chatter like school girls while instructor carries on.
My tutor never showed us from start to finish how to plaster a wall use guys are lucky I had to figure out each stage on my own .over time you will develop your on technique
Same here absolute waste of time college .. only come out office when senior management have a walk round. Good old England usual twats in important positions
Bricklaying is the hardest trade to learn. I’m not talking about Romanian line monkeys but proper trowels. Real trowels who can build a house off plans that takes years of dedication. It pains me too see the shit going around working for agencies calling themselves tradesmen. I’m a foreman for a Brickie subcontractor and the bullshitters don’t last long. Would love to be able to plaster though !!!
Using the same plaster for the 2nd coat isn’t recommended. You should always mix fresh plaster for the 2nd coat after the first coat as dried a bit. You can still get a good finish but I wouldn’t be teaching this method to trainees.
He says at the 43 minute mark, that if he was on the job he would be laying on 2 walls at the same time from the first mix, then mixing a fresh mix for second coat. What he is doing here is good enough for demonstration purposes.
This is teaching a couple of guys to skim a wall theres nothing wrong with this at all so many different ways to skim as long as the finished product is up to scratch i always put sand in the pva and paint it on the night before giving a good key no chance of slidding
loved the vid guys reminded me of the first time i was shown , 1 mix but on two coats (if you got a small area or your fast enough ) and bottom to top old skool 👍
Naa, the second coat flattens in the first, if the first is too firmed up then the second won’t do it’s job properly. I use the same mix for both coats all the time, worst case water what’s left down and add some powder if you need more
Thai guy is OK but should always start from top and play the piano keys across the wall and fresh mix for second coat gives chance for the first coat to key
That only works in the real world but when you've got a huge ceiling to skim you always get all the middle on then do edges as it's easier that way and u got more time on edges while you flatten middle 👍👍👍
50 years doing plastering still working. Aches pains just like anybody but not recommend the building trade to anyone ,always treated as a second class citizen. Does nobody wear overalls any more to keep clean and this man makes it look so hard.
Everyone's taught diff,my self was taught in the same way you were by sounds of it, but you pick up tips and tricks on site it's way easier if u slap all the middle on and leave edges till last plus then you have more time to cut edges in and brush them out 👍👍👍
When we hardwall plaster set here in Australia-(Lime/plaster) mix-we actually do the first coat very tight -a scrap virtually and that removes any chance of air being trapped then we pass over with our 2mm coat and flatten and trowel to glass like finish-can set up in 10-20 mins.
@@Czajnikzgwizdkiem have heard about that I hung my trowel up 4yrs ago after 18yrs decided traveling around the country was enough for me needed to spend more time at home instead of b&bs lol
Just be confident do worry how great first coat looks, just get it on the wall. Then flatten out I'm a one coat guy on good prepared walls on bad two coats.
Most people under the impression that PVA has to be tacky and that's what sticks plaster,all false the PVA is there to act as a barrier and even out suction so doesn't matter if it's dry or tacky before you apply plaster 👍👍👍
@@stevekneller7864 like glass over skimming but different on let's say dry wall or bonding, you have around 50 metres to skim the pva isn't gonna stay tacky that long anyway depending on the humidity, 20yrs + experience would say don't over skim in the first place just laziness and corner cutting if your gonna do a proper job then do a proper job,any over skim requests i had I've alway overboard and skimmed or for solid walls knocked back to brickwork,most reasons it pops off is because walls contaminated before hand or backing isn't sound enough to receive another coat or environmental factors such as dust 👍👍

Plastering is tough going. Ralph has only just turned 35.
😂
Liked the bit when they were all breathing in the plaster dust when mixing and the sub title came saying always wear a mask 😆 good old tradesman
Old school plasterer, see how he cut the top in,reverse flick and pulled it down,brillant

I was at this plastering college in 1975 - when it was the size of a aircraft hanger.
great tutorial. love the Scottish accents too 👍🏽
Nice videos thank you guys. Old school so much plain😁
you'v got three guys sitting on their buts and your cleaning the mixer,get them telt
There being taught
It’s called trades training school for a reason 🤦♂️
There labors

He makes it look easy! Great demo
Some ignorant buggers on this course, talking over the tutor! But away from that... an amazing video and very well explained. Thank you Ralph.
The amount of plaster you used on that small wall was insane I thought it was different colour render it's that thick
I think it's a training area setup
So was this coated twice with the same mix? Great vid
this is a great training video. i can imagine those young workers fighting to sit down. than getting dust in their faces. lol. than chatter like school girls while instructor carries on.
My tutor never showed us from start to finish how to plaster a wall use guys are lucky I had to figure out each stage on my own .over time you will develop your on technique
Same with my tutor, he told us what to do and left the workshop so all the student are having to learn from themselves
Same here absolute waste of time college .. only come out office when senior management have a walk round. Good old England usual twats in important positions
Lol same here mate

show em out to sponge float, much better finish, 6 week course lol, 4 years in collage myself, then came out and started learning.
Brilliant tutorial 👍🏼
Top dog Charlie
Masterful ! Looks awesome 👏
Cracking vid. Effortless
subtitles are funny on this one lol
You can’t beat a good prison video 👍😂🇬🇧
Should never flatten with a flexi
Quality that there Ralphy👍
He’s alright to be fair
Sorry but glad he did not teach me
Why??
@@RobinHood-uv6uw too slow ..
@@popeye4827 he's doing a tutorial. been plastering for 30 years.
@@tradestrainingschooledinburgh ok thank's
Trades Training The plastering work looks foooked
I couldn't understand what they were saying.... are they Polish ?
lol. Scottish
@@tradestrainingschooledinburgh Great video.... given me the confidence to give it a go. Thanks for posting :-)
Lol
Polishing is water trialing

I think he done time saving techniques because of the tutorial thats the impression i got anyway
Good advice no fat filling
This is teaching a couple of guys to skim a wall theres nothing wrong with this at all so many different ways to skim as long as the finished product is up to scratch i always put sand in the pva and paint it on the night before giving a good key no chance of slidding
your explanation very much you are a great professional thank you very much
This reminds me of the venetian style?
This isn't anything special in UK. It's standard.
谢谢分享
loved the vid guys reminded me of the first time i was shown , 1 mix but on two coats (if you got a small area or your fast enough ) and bottom to top old skool 👍
As a Canadian plasterer, ive never spent as much time on a 6x10 wall as i did on this video...great stuff!!!
It’s probably 5 ft by 8 😳🙄😂
Cracking video. Lots of great info throughout.
Start at the top lad
👍👍👍
1st coat still wet need bit of time to dry then 2 nd coat should be applied at sametime y need labour to give you hand .mix fresh one for 2 nd coat
Naa, the second coat flattens in the first, if the first is too firmed up then the second won’t do it’s job properly. I use the same mix for both coats all the time, worst case water what’s left down and add some powder if you need more
I came out of job Corp into local 294
Thai guy is OK but should always start from top and play the piano keys across the wall and fresh mix for second coat gives chance for the first coat to key
That only works in the real world but when you've got a huge ceiling to skim you always get all the middle on then do edges as it's easier that way and u got more time on edges while you flatten middle 👍👍👍
best advice dont become a spread
How long to wait between coats?
Definitely not on price
Have u a email for contacting about course thanks

Cekol C 45 is the best sorry but plastering is really messy shit
Fireproof ing is messy
Good!
Good!
Made that look easy. No speedskim or spunge float ,a real plasterer.
Brilliant video
Good stuff
Hey man I haven't do dis for at least 11years now since I leave the UK and the way you're doing it is good but is estimated to start from tell top
Everyone's taught diff,my self was taught in the same way you were by sounds of it, but you pick up tips and tricks on site it's way easier if u slap all the middle on and leave edges till last plus then you have more time to cut edges in and brush them out 👍👍👍
I thought he was rendering it's that thick
👍🏴🤪
what are the timings for this? first coat / second coat / flatten / polish
Depends on humidity to be honest
Also depends what your plastering onto and how well suction controled on it
No body seem to know.
When we hardwall plaster set here in Australia-(Lime/plaster) mix-we actually do the first coat very tight -a scrap virtually and that removes any chance of air being trapped then we pass over with our 2mm coat and flatten and trowel to glass like finish-can set up in 10-20 mins.
Glass like finish? Painters reading this are punching the air right now
Knauf multi finish is much better
Yer knauf finish hangs for ever and doesn't take much trowelling up
lea tube is a possible to apply with a painting roll little work plaster is relic check in TH-cam knauf super finish szpachlowanie
@@Czajnikzgwizdkiem have heard about that I hung my trowel up 4yrs ago after 18yrs decided traveling around the country was enough for me needed to spend more time at home instead of b&bs lol

Always 2 coat pva 1 dry and 2and tacky then skim

@@lea-rw5cb wrong pal if u plaster on to dry pva it is like going on to glass ive see whole wall pop off after
