Hi twitcher, It's better in warmer climates,tangeirs forms part of that which is opposite Gibraltar. you're right tadleakt is lime based, and so is carrara and in the UK it gives a better result and slight different finish, however, I would still use it in bathrooms. Insteasd of discussing...

Carrara is better in bathrooms, yes it's different but more durable. When you did your course, surely they would shown you water direct onto Tadelakt. So you use german tadelakt from Cornwall, same with their colour additives but the dark ones have a shelf life of approximately 3 months...

I have waitedn to see what you have to say. So like I've said before, which tadelakt are you using. So when you talk about this, from the txt book that's why I differ. As I have stated already the reason why it fails. Stay with your txt book, no offence, and then go a do a load then you will see...

better than bondit and chepertoo.Holds off longer

This will be my last visit for a while, because they have been answered many times. Ther's not 2 types, there's many many finishes, from Classic, carrara, classic carrara,carrara classic, Inton pitted,dragged,metallic,velvet to many to list. What you need to understand is this, what goes where...

Hi Twitcher, don't know what your expereince is, however, will not get into bun fight, as I said already depends what your using, ie type of tadelakt. As I said already I wouldn't PUT IT IN BATHROOMS WITH DIRECT WATER here in the UK. Read previous threads, but you know this already. There are...

Experience is experience that's what I know, and as an applicator I do know the products. You see it's called underpinning knowledge that's what matters. So as for tadleakt and many other products you get what you buy, so when it goes wrong it goes badly wrong, i'm not making statements they are...

I wish just been ripped off over the years, so I know whats good

They sell all Venetian, Tadelakt, Cementious and Intona, if acustomer wants a finish they get what they asked for.

He's at Goldtrowel and has a new site up selling to many clients me for one. His clientel are Arabs and many people from the UK, Goto you tube his doing the blue wall. I do know he has a contract with Italy and he is doing floors shortly. Good to know plus he gives you the support if you need it.

There's nothing better than see you in the picture than a downloaded picture it sells you, it gives the customer the feel good factor, by the way it's venetian marble plastering because it's marble veneziano.

How long it lasts, not just that the durability is not there. Why not ask around on forums to see what their take is. Thx

thecertifiacte comes with the product, which is also classed 0 rating Fire. His lime comes direct from Italy it tells you on the label, so really you can't argue the case,it is what it is. I also know he has many contacts in Italy and It is my understanding he will be hitting the UK hard with it...

Well lime in the Uk is of poor quality for decorative finishes, ie Venetian marble plastering. Its poor quarrying with constant battering of our English weather and it's temprature to not help the process, hence poor quality, In Italy, the weather like in Morocco is far warmer on average and...

Hi PETEM, his lime is fine for Lime rendering but not Venetian, not consistent enough for fine quality and has no Genuine authenticity on, point is think of our quarries in the Uk and that of Italy, that's the differnece. Many people call Venetian (Marmorino) that name is a trade name, the rest...
