What is Magnetic Plaster?

A skim coat plaster that attracts magnets. Turning any wall into a massive fridge door

It is applied using standard skills and methods, the only practical difference is that is must go on at a minimum of 3mm & does not trowel up to a shiny finish

What is Unifinish?

Thistle UniFinish is a plaster which can be used for re-skimming over a wide rangeof backgrounds without the need for pre‑treatment.

Thistle UniFinish is a plaster which is ideal for refurbishment jobs on a number of different backgrounds without the need for pre-treatment. Very high suction backgroundsmay still need pre-treatment with PVA, but not having to treat the whole area meansquicker application and less mess.
