'Copy' works on Linux, there you go:
"Background preparation
Surfaces should be reasonably dry, clean and protected from the weather, and suitable for the chosen specification. In addition, before plastering concrete backgrounds, ensure that any mould oil or other agents present are removed from the surface. No-fines concrete does not require wetting prior to plastering. Normal ballast concrete should be given sufficient time to mature before applying the plaster. Plaster should not be applied onto a ‘green’ background or when any free water is visible. Mature concrete will require wetting to displace the air before plastering. Clean water should be applied 5-10 minutes before plaster application to control the suction. In-situ or pre-cast concrete which is exceptionally smooth or which is made from limestone, brick, granite and certain lightweight aggregates, will require pre-treatment with ThistleBond-It bonding agent."

take a look at earlier posts their the ones that asked me to do it you can only do it the way the boss says

I think we should call it a day now on this one, it's gone way off topic. We've all got our opinions on this one way or the other. Steve's a good spread.

So I've told you that the way you've done that is shocking and you reply by calling me a tw*t...............that makes you right then! Carry on mate - I won't say too much - certainly not what I'd like to tell you anyhow - cos with workmanship like that you will be on first name terms with your lawyer.
