|
|
|
I usually use pva and skim on it when its tacky, but recently someone told they use bond-it instead
Anyone know whats the difference (i think you may have to put it on the day before, im not sure) and where can you buy it?
Any ideas Cheers |

I once read something about a product that I think was called bond it or possibly something with blue in the title, some guy said that all plasterers are cowboys if they use pva
But all the plasterers that I know use it and so he must of been talking rubbish  _________________ DIY | DIY Video |

PVA.
One of the best all round products available, plasterers, carpenters, flooring, sealing, priming. Not convinced by the branded stuff though, twice the price does not make twice as good. _________________ Building Materials Sourcing
