    Cpi render

    Ok cheers for the help years ago all we used to do was sand +cement so that's not a problem would still rather work with it now than hardwall but a lot of houses we plaster now are mostly dot and dabbed so don't really use it a lot these days . Just thought if I could have used a pre bagged sand...

    Shite sand

    we have had the same before I find a lot of so called plastering sand comes up to fine so we always mix sharp and a small amount of building sand seems to bind it together nice . we always use the opc blue circle paper bags seems the mastercrete and others have got to many plastiscers in them

    Cheaper mono system

    I think they like the moncouche finish I have only ever used parex so am not familiar with the other monocouche they say ehi does between 1.7-2.1 m can't think how much the ehi is we pay 9.20 plus vat for monorex I know ehi is quite a bit dearer

    How much time does it save using a machine

    Yeah I agree that's what made my mind up doing the gable Saturday was all the loading out and grief that comes with it . Is that roughly what the machines throw out a bag a minute .?

    How much time does it save using a machine

    To be honest we cover up anyway so would make no difference on that front.watched a few videos with the machines don't look loads quicker just seems a lot less messing around with loading levels out and doing that gable yesterday we could have done it with 2 rather than 3 . Just hope the outlay...

    How much time does it save using a machine

    Obviously this depends on the individual but if you was spraying monocouche on a gable wall of roughly 50 metres with scaffold up how long roughly would you expect to take to put it on ? Obviously I know it will vary cheers
