IP Plastering - Skimming East Kilbride, Glasgow and surrounding areas

Skimming East Kilbride

Skimming is the process of using a smaller ammount of plaster on the walls when the surfaces are sound.

So, why Skim?

Skimming is the term used for either the final setting coat or a thin coat over sound walls, which should be about 1/8 inch thick. In Scotland it is termed the "finishing coat", and in America the "hard finish coat" or "putty coat". Setting stuff should not be applied until the floating is quite firm and nearly dry, but it must not be too dry or the moisture will be drawn from the setting stuff.

Whilst skimming the finer coat it is poslished into a marble like finish so that it will provide the perfect finish for decoration.
