The Art of Plastering
The 5th of my plastering tips.
Plastering Tip 5: Get the perfect finish but don't over polish!
On the final trowelling DON'T get too carried away - you don´t want the situation where paint will peel easily in some areas and stick rock hard in others - completely ruining the plaster finish.

The Art of Plastering
The 4th of my plastering tips.
Plastering Tip 4: Cleanliness is key to creating that perfect plaster finish.
The best tip I was ever given while learning the trade is to always clean up as you're plastering. Let me explain: Any contamination in your plaster mix will result in either the plaster setting or going off too quickly, and since plastering is generally a race against time, anything that reduces the time you have to complete your job is ultimately going to cause more work than less. Therefore it is essential that buckets and equipment are washed up as you go.
Remember, even the tiniest fleck of dried plaster from a previous mix can cause pulls and drags in your plaster finish and lead to frustration. Always ensure the water used for plastering is clean.

The Art of Plastering
Here's the third of my plastering tips.
Plastering Tip 3: Don't try to take on too much!
When attempting to plaster for the first time - it's good to start on a small wall - ie an area that can be covered with a single coat in 20 mins or less.
Don't try and get the surface perfect during this first coat. Allowing the plaster to dry before applying the second coat will greatly improve the final finish. Using this technique not only makes plastering quicker but you will end up with a better finish every time.
