I was working with a spread today and he's got this new pva from Germany called easy view. What do you reckon?

I've had my Bosch 11e mixer for 8 years. It's the nuts still but I'm sick of carrying a transformer everywhere for it as I only go domestic and private work. Has anyone got a 12e Bosch mixer? It's £100 cheaper than the one I've got but the spec says it's as powerful. Can't help but think...

I've never used the 135mm before. Because of the shape I don't think it will cut in the gyproc mitre box. Does anyone know if it cuts nice with the magic mitre (the metal triangle)?? cheers

Hi just wondered what adhesive people use for coving? I've been using wall tile adhesive for about 12 months and must have used 100 lengths since January. But had my first ever comeback where the coving hasn't taken to the walls with no explanation. To be fare I didn't key the walls but I don't...
