Cheap Materials

[JBPlasteringmcr]

Do you know any cheap websites for bulk materials? I don't mean 1000 skim beads etc. by "bulk" more like 50 beads, boxes of scrim, PVA ect. Any websites that do good deals if you buy a few different things at once?

A lad I was working with bought a skim bucket from travis and they charged him 29 quid

 

[JBPlasteringmcr]

Lol they're probably out of stock now! You know what people are like when they see a bargain!

 

[spunky]

I'm sure the list price is 11 quid for a skim bead

does anyone know if you can get a marshalltown gold permashape 14x5 that isn`t actually stainless steel? i bought one off ebay which was advertised as a permashape and it has the gold durasoft handle so i automatically assumed it was stainless steel but it isn`t. any golds i have ever seen were always stainless steel.

All Permashape trowels are stainless. Unless things have recently changed all the carbon steel trowels have the black edging to their handles.

I had a 20" permashape once (gold handle) that wasn't stainless prob about 3-4 yrs ago now.
Looks as rusty as my transit now :rolleyes)

You were probably had by the same seller Lee according to Marshalltown Permashape is a process that allows stainless steel to retain it's shape.

Can't remember exactly but i think i got it from screwfix.

Yeah i think some gimp just stuck a gold handle on a bog standard trowel hoping that some other clown would fall for it thinking he was gonna get the deal of the century. I am that clown.
