Sparking, carpentry, glazing, roofing, brickwork, plumbing etc. I will turn my hand to most things but DIY plastering………madness !

Plastering is one of the few blind spots in my repertoire.
Welding’s pretty average as well but I don’t do it often enough to get good. Just welded up holes in the exhaust manifold on my Ginetta for the second time. The last inch or so, out of about ten, was only not very good. The rest you don’t want to see.

Not really.
I’m reasonably competent at most DIY jobs and will have a go at anything, but plastering is patently obviously impossible. It’s all done by mirrors or Black Magic or something.
You may infer from the above that I can’t do it and you’d be absolutely right. Hopeless.

Okey dokey, time to confess. I’m on a weeks leave and the wife is making me catch up on all those DIY jobs!
Just getting back to the point, can anyone tell me what I should use Carlite Browning for?

Sorry Frank, you’re going to have to explain that one to me, I don’t get it.
