    Hi,

    I too saw long awaited feedback on that product, if I remember right Jimmy Smith is being nice allowing it on the shelf at all ;).

    It sounds dire.
    It actually sounds harder to do than to just skim normally.
    Here is a web site:

    Good luck :-)

    p.s. I have never skimmed a full wall; I am FULLY aware how hard it is to do well but I have some small bits I need to do and I will do it as in the web site rather than the paint on stuff. Either that or I will use lining paper straight on plasterboard.
