Not enough plaster for 2nd coat!

How much it too much water?

 

Not done plastering before and can't really tell how runny your mix is but if it would stick without dripping off I'd try it what's worst that could happen do it again tomorrow which is the other option anyway

 

Posting about things you know nothing about again Neil, this is getting to be a habit now

 

Be too dry in the morning pva it and plaster it wile it's still tacky.

 

One thing a do know is you really need a razor

 

I have several thanks.

 

Tip it out onto a blanket/ground sheet, then shovel it up again, minus the water that the sheet has soaked up.

Mr. HandyAndy - Really

 

Shouldn't do pva reactivates with moisture and goes tacky anyway.

 

Pva it and get on with it

 

Would you suggest a much weaker mix of pva(ie more water) ?

Mr. HandyAndy - Really

 

Depending on how thick he's put the first coat on Andy, it may well be dry by tomorrow anyway. I'd just pva up as normal and put on another 2 coats.

 

If the original coat is still wet - ie dark pink - can't he chust skim the second coat straight on?

(Or even slightly water-spray any sections wot's dried out?)

 

Possibly, depending on conditions, but given that ceilings are more of a pain I personally wouldn't want to.

 

Agreed Ceilings are bad enough you don't whant to risk having to do get up and do it over again and again, sole destroying.

 

I think you'll find your soles are the only bits that'll be ok when doing ceilings...

 

Well excuse my poor spelling just add an ar to it
