Absolute rubbish. drying time is ridiculous, doesnt dry hard easy to dent unlike plaster of paris. it shrinks and leaves gaps that have to be continuously filled. Regretted buying this after the first coat. Second container thats unopened us going back ! if i could give it no stars i would.

I have done quite a bit of plastering as a DIYer and the plastering is my lest favourite job but this product has certainly changed that for me. I found this product the best yet to apply and sand for all the required coats. The fact that I could use it straight from the container was a plus. The air bubbles in the mix are easily removed by giving a stir on the hawk before applying I would recommend this product.

I am currently DIY building 2 walls as part of an extension. First time gyprocking and plastering so I thought I'd use the premix to start with. The positives is that its easy to use, dries and sands well & you only need one product for all coats. The negatives are that you cannot use it straight out of the bucket. It has lots of tiny air bubbles trapped in the mix, which translates to your walls. You need to mix it very well in the bucket or on a board before applying. I also found it a little thick and hard to spread (especially in corners), so I had to keep adding small amounts of water to the mix to get it more creamier. But having said that it was good for patching ceilings as is.

The other thing is I've gone through 2 buckets already, so I'm not sure if it the most cost effective option compared to buying larger bags/buckets of base coat, then top coat etc. If I'd had done this before, I'd have got the 12kg bucket instead.
