any ideas on internal sand and cement alternatives to cpi? its 4.75 a bag now which is getting a but pricey. ocr i got quoted 5.30. sand and cement shouldnt be double the price of hardwall
 
560 x 4.75 is £2660
tonne of sand 8 bags cement £55
this does 40m ish £770
What's the point?
 
@bobby am going to try and spray sand and cement tomorrow. I think the sand i have might pump. What did you mix it at when u did it with the ritmo. My machine is just a pump like the eze machine.

Mixed it 4/1/1 with plasticiser.we tried to up it to 5 but it didn't like it.has to be wet also.make sure the mixes are consistent.
 
There's a sand down here called kiln dried sand which is very fine.i will try to add some of this next time to bind it better.
 
All this sounds a right faff, what with different sands,lime plasticiser's and waterproofers can't you just use gypsum. Or like you say nicklearse you and a pleb on the hawk and trowel.
