yep pretty heavy but on UK Self Build forum I set up a 'deal' I
bought a telescopic board lifter - on castors so position boards with
ease (as glued together, then stapled to counter battens)
Then once I finished my build sold it on for 100% of cost to next member
...... that meant each person could get aboard lifter for weeks and get
100% of the money back. They are expensive to rent, and self builders
cant do all boarding in a couple of days.


The wall boards were even heaving at 1/2" and I had extra length
special of 2.61m rather than 2.4m



I would try Wickes fine surface plaster. Dries white and can be
sanded down to remove imperfections.

Or even Fine surface polyfilla that comes in premixed tubs.

Just a couple of dry-lining took marks that have annoyed me.


Thanks
