    Help with silicone render selection

    Thanks. Is the ocr okay on eps with though mate? Changing the subject, i'm hacking off an outside and the w#$ ker has done the dashing in one coat using river wash and about 2 sand 1 cement. I'm smashing the bricks to bits. Anyone got any non sarcastic tips for getting it off please.

    Help with silicone render selection

    Thanks for all the response. I was thinking of getting weber ocr and sil.p. Is that not suitable then. I've not heard of a lot of these companies and wouldn't know where to get them. I know parex is supplied by encon which is not to far. I have a minsters and sig quite close too.

    Help with silicone render selection

    Hi. Can anyone recommend a good silicone render system(inc base coat, primers etc) for hand application. The system that i'd like you to recommend has to go over some of the area in extruded polystyrene for insulation. Cheers.

    Advice for a big nurley ceiling

    You'll be alright mate. Just make sure you've got everything you need to complete the job ready before you start. And have three shredded wheat for your breaky.

    Advice for a big nurley ceiling

    How about forming a shadow gap. You can over board the ceiling leave say a 12mm gap up to the coving all the way round the room and finish the board edge that meets the coving with a board end stop bead.

    Parex gf scraped colour!

    And she did go onto their website and the facade simulator and chose the g10 colour but like I say only on the gf colour chart.

    Parex gf scraped colour!

    Tbh Andy is the first time I've used parex. I'd heard of Blanc du littoral but didn't know the grit size. She wasn't happy with the grit size of pral.m. So I was advised on the gf for a finer grit size. Is the blanc du littoral avaliable as a fine grit? Or is it medium?

    M2 price or day rate?

    Roughly work out how many square metre's you/team can do a day. Divide that by how many metres there are on his project. And if it would take you a lot longer than his expected four weeks, then give him a price not dayrate.
