ThistlePro FastSet Finish offers the same premium quality as the current range of high-performance ThistlePro products but sets in half the time of standard skim finish plaster.

It also removes the need for additives and hacks that reduce product performance and void warranties, helping plasterers achieve a consistent faster-setting time and finish.

Paul Cassidy, Product Portfolio Development Director at British Gypsum, said: “Following feedback from a survey we carried out last year, it became clear that more of our customers would prefer to work with a finishing plaster that has a faster setting time, with many of them already using something similar several times a week.

“As a result of this, we are pleased to be launching the first skim finishing product on the market with a setting time of 60 minutes. The latest product will not only provide our customers with an option that has been designed to improve on site efficiently, but peace of mind that the product guarantee will remain valid.”
