I spray multi with my ritmo but not on domestic jobs it's to messy

As Mike says it is to messy for domestic work but comes in to its own on commercial jobs with large areas to be skimmed

What if you're on a large new build. All boarded and prepped? Surely it's worth a do then.

Or when you say domestic you mean like a couple of room overskims?

Consider you have plenty to go at and you spray many more m2 in the time you would hand apply. Great news so far. Then once its on get the machine and pipes cleaned out before it sets.
Then once you have your many metres on and youe expensive equipment cleaned get troweling up the many m2 you have so quickly sprayed on.
But you had better be fit as your machine coz this lot is going to set as fast as the lesser hand applied lot would in the same time.
Speak to Mike above or someone who has done it. You just may have the contracts and the men to make it worth while.
I like the airless method myself.

Most of my work is on boards in new builds so plenty of room can you not set up outside and then your mess is out there . I usually work with 4 all capable of troweling in. I was hoping one would go on spraying then the rest follow on behind or is my thinking a bit keen cheers for the replys

yeah if i'm doing big wall 100 m2 is not a problem but the over spray is a nightmare you have to cover everything
just doing wall you get a couple of hundred mm puddle around the floor
ive put 80 m2 on on my own before with cleaning the ritmo and troweling up

I have a machine, 70 percent is new build internal, 30 percent renders and I wouldn't use mine for skim. We are three gang of plasterers no labourer and everyone mixed there own multi and looks after themselves we get the most on that way. If was to do it with machine the mess the taping on windows the cleaning of the machine the extra cleaning on the build, the extra stress. Skimming is stress free why complicate it for a few £ a m2 and you have to convert the site to mp finish

Anyone selling the skim kit for the Ritmo I've got 100m plus walls and ceilings to put on prob 5k m2 total commercial, but know we will use it once so defo not buying it new!
I have the man power but they have to be spread out across various contracts and fines on this job are in the contract for running late.
Cheers all

What do you want for it, I'm assuming it doesn't need a bigger compressor as its got one built in?
Am I gonna need a different mixing shaft?
It's a 2012 ritmo

Bigger compressors are better but will still spray fine off the onboard comp
