You can get a demo for the rafina at AMAROC in Swindon that's were I got my screw pump fromLol have you 2 met before? Anyways I looked into these and still not ruled out getting a small one they do tbh,i have seen a few of the models on youtube etc being used and do like the look. Most will advice Ritmo or the mtec mate as both have good after service and they both also are compact ,multi application use and have proven long-term use of life, my only comment I can make about the Refina models is I found it hard to even arrange a demonstration of products and haven't a clue what the after sales or back up would be , having said that I sure they probably as good in those terms as other 2 mentioned.
how often do you think you will use the pump?Anyone use the refina spray machines all these topics about the ritmo just wondered how they compare?
I'm looking at using one as much as possible to be honest spraying internal and renders.how often do you think you will use the pump?
Also what will you put through it
Well if I was you I would invest in a machine that will mix it aswellI'm looking at using one as much as possible to be honest spraying internal and renders.
What's your setup at the minute, what do you mainly spray?Well if I was you I would invest in a machine that will mix it aswell
But to be honest I wouldn't be the one to tell you which is the best one to get
I have been using a lot of Jub I've been spraying the basecoat and 1.5 mm top coat. I know there is a few people that say it's daft if you have to mix it first then put it in the hopper.What's your setup at the minute, what do you mainly spray?
I ended up letting my Eze go. Found thin coat much easier by hand. All that masking is epic and defeats the object of saving time and effort.I have been using a lot of Jub I've been spraying the basecoat and 1.5 mm top coat. I know there is a few people that say it's daft if you have to mix it first then put it in the hopper.
But you should let the basecoat stand for 5 mins then mix it again you couldn't do that with one that mixes and sprays.
Am still quicker using my pump than using buckets and carrying up scaffolding.
I mix up to 7 bags in my bongo that's plenty to be getting on with
It's sounds do able though doesn't it I'd probably give that ago first anything is better than handballing, do you have a labourer mixing up for you??I have been using a lot of Jub I've been spraying the basecoat and 1.5 mm top coat.

Yeah I've got a lad that mixes it and keeps me going plus he it not bad at putting the mesh in aswellIt's sounds do able though doesn't it I'd probably give that ago first anything is better than handballing, do you have a labourer mixing up for you??

Yes there is a lot of taping up to do but my Labourer would mask most jobs in a day so it's not to expensive plus I hate finishing on soft angles it looks crap and it saves your elbow when u sprayI ended up letting my Eze go.

That's my plan going to have a look at taking someone on next year but I think I'll probably give your setup ago first before buying a ritmo or something thanks for the advice for the refina modelYeah I've got a lad that mixes it and keeps me going plus he it not bad at putting the mesh in aswell
Plus when you spray the top coat it's handy to have someone to help with the hoses the hoses hold one tub and you get two more tubs in the hopper so you can get plenty done with just two blokes
Do you not cover the windows if your hand applying like?I ended up letting my Eze go. Found thin coat much easier by hand. All that masking is epic and defeats the object of saving time and effort.
Once the machine is set up you can load the machine to run on its ownThat's my plan going to have a look at taking someone on next year but I think I'll probably give your setup ago first before buying a ritmo or something thanks for the advice for the refina model

same here, i gave it a good run but as you say time spent masking etc you may aswell be laying on. you cant trust labourers to mask either. If the jobs big enough i would spray but other than that its just spraying for sake of having a spraying machineI ended up letting my Eze go. Found thin coat much easier by hand.

Yes I know what you mean it is a pain masking up but I look at the job and if I can spray in two days with a Labourer I will use the pump but anything smaller a 2+1 gangsame here, i gave it a good run but as you say time spent masking etc you may aswell be laying on. you cant trust labourers to mask either.

I ended up getting the 230 for £372 would that have been around the same you'd have charged??ahh no problem, i need to sort my phones out . did you get a 230 or 110v .
Yeah agree, the last couple years ive just called in a few local plasterers for a day and we blitz the topcoat. I just work for them for a day in return and we quits. Been working ok so farYes I know what you mean it is a pain masking up but I look at the job and if I can spray in two days with a Labourer I will use the pump but anything smaller a 2+1 gang

How do you do wet anglesYeah agree, the last couple years ive just called in a few local plasterers for a day and we blitz the topcoat. I just work for them for a day in return and we quits. Been working ok so far
I got em in stockN
No had to be ordered in will take five working days , but ill be like a kid in a sweet shop trying it out,
Really is it to late to cancel haha I did try you quite a few times on the phone number off the website, little guttered would have had it a bit earlier, maybe cheaper with a refina bucket thrown in or am I pushing it,I got em in stock
Id not start at gable if that was the case. Id start at front and continue round. If there was an internal angle i could use that as a finish point.How do you do wet angles
If you did a gable in the morning and you wanted to do the two sides in the afternoon how do you keep ya angles tidy
