    ewi finishes

    I don't buy into it tbh......we did a Parex ewi job recently using ehi. The customer fitted the boards and to be fair they were fully bonded and the tightest boarding I've seen. He was a right perfectionist and took ages to do it before we turned up. We then sprayed the maite & mesh and left...

    Render machine

    Aye unfortunately.....cement mixer. At least that way the labs free to jump up on the mesh whilst its mixing. Not gonna bother with the whisk for that reason. Shame it doesn't go through the pump. Why is that btw.....what does it do to the pump to stop it working? Or is it the machine...

    Render machine

    Most people only need 1 machine. If its you and a lab then the ritmo is all you need. Ok it's a bit slower than a g4 but if it ain't stopping from one side of a lift to another it's quick enough. If you've a guy behind ruling then it's only on wide open pine ends that a little more speed...

    acrylic set up

    To go with a ritmo m 240 the Refina 240v is perfect. Not sure on the 110 version but the mains powered one runs all day without ever getting too hot and it's never cut out once.

    used weber ocr with ritmo

    Yep exactly.....after using weber Parex is just a long day for no need. Parex in winter though. I think weber should bring out a fine pral m to compete with parex's gf. It's a better finish and everyone prefers it

    used weber ocr with ritmo

    Spraying ehi over maite & insulation....around £12-14 a bag. Nice stuff. It's gf so a nice tight finish. We're spraying at 180 and a next day scrape. Lovelly productive stuff in that it's r******d or the lime in it makes it a next dayer even at this time of year. Try not to use parex in...

    used weber ocr with ritmo

    We're on 225 for pral m speed 10. Never ever get above that really.....ehi is on 180! And it ain't dry.

    acrylic set up

    I've got the Refina c330 comp. it's a cracking little bit of kit. Enough air to give you a nice even texture, it's cheap and most importantly....it's orange so matches the ritmo!

    Difference in mesh

    Weber mesh is one size fits all and it's like 355

    sand cement

    This is interesting....sand & cement through a ritmo?! Never tried but god it would come in handy if just as a dubbing coat.

    Parinter on paint followed by mono

    Working with 15mm beads is safer tho when scraped monos the finish....but if your keen enough about making sure no bits of parinter covering the wings of the beads are too high to interfere with the finish 10 might be fine. A brush down as you go should keep things neat, or clean up after...

    Parinter on paint followed by mono

    That's what it's for mate.....I'd be tempted to use 10mm beads fixed with parinter in solid bands if its a bit wooly or 15mm on tight if its nice and flat etc. treat it like mono over insulation where the parinter makes up 5mm of the 15mm total, so mono at 10mm max. That's assuming you heed...

    Parex EHI next day scrape?

    Sprayed about 1.30 til 4.30. Quite soft next day...just about perfect for an overnighter. In winter I bet you could spray in the morn and scrape next morn
