The should be no dust prior to painting and none after it

It's dust being blown in to the paint via the pressure of the spray from the airless sprayer. The area wasn't prepared properly and the sprayer should/would have noticed it. Do we know if the wall is f+s or just board work?

Will look fine in summer

The stuff at the bottom of the wall is where it's been spray painted. It's dust in the paint If your looking for a paint try Tikkurila Anti-Reflex 2 If it was my job I'd be recoating it with 2 coats of Alsecco FX plaster, sanding it, then applying two coats of Tikkurila Anti-Reflex 2 first...

Yes we have 2 gracos mark v and another machine

We use alsecco fx spray plaster

Yep that's right. Was quite fiddley and we had my dad on the job. As I've said above it's not always quicker but it's always easier on the body and gives a better finish

18 man days

Final finish is 2-3mm same as multi

It's 725m2 and taken 18 days. Vaulted ceilings and media walls with fire were tricky and slowed things down.

Still here :) Easterlow has summed everything up in the post above. Ready mixed airless plasters are great for new build house or full house restorations. The quality of the finish is far superior to gypsum plasters. It is also quicker in most buildings once you understand the system. If you...

Never the market is to niche

Don't be silly the texture set up is great

Yes it's because he's applying the second coat to quickly

We use Alseeco FX.

Did you spin the material with a wisk?

Miles ahead and well worth changing over to

Apx is a beast

I use our ritmo for all our topcoat. Use the slower r/s

Makes airless look good

We use alot of Baumit and it is good gear. Used it on my own house last year

What do you need to know?

No did not have the time . Someone else now teaches the course I put together, however i still support the students via my facebook group Airless Spray Plasterers With regard to the cost. As a independent, the all the facilities need to be covered in the price. They had to cover the cost of...

Total airless addict now. Anything else just seems poor

No one is going to develop a machine that is only going to be bought by a handful of guys in the UK. The EU market isnt interested. You can use a cats eye nozzle on a screw pump to give a flat band, however it still doesnt combat the mess created by the atomization of the plaster, or deal with...

It can be finished however its quicker to knock it back once and the sand. Also leaves a better job. Finish is superior and more consistent

Yes sprayed through ritmo l

Company called textile technologies

Because the rates are shocking and anyone that can float is outside earning twice as much

Love plastering amd rendering. s**t goes wrong sometimes and you learn more about the job and yourself when it does. Whats sort of plastering do you do? Would drive me mad if i couldnt jump between the different aspects

Oh cool should be a good show. When there notice how easy the machine is to use, the control of the spray, the minimal over spray and the lack of setup and clean down every day. We clean the machine through at the end of each job. Can be a couple of weeks. You just turn up and spray from 8 till...

Where you off to?

The reality of spraying gypsum internally is that its difficult to get right and its messy amd stressful. Thistle spray finish was the best of all the materials. We used to one coat and sponge and had to use plastic trowels to finish with other wise it would tear. There are easier spray methods...

12 days for 640m2 in a one off house it had a double height lounge which was plastered of a tower and also the rooms up stairs were formed in the roof so had alot of splayed angles. 12 days ill take that all paid out and over 2 grand profit, ill take that

Only if you go out and buy new does it cost anywhere near 6 grand. Mark V can be had second hand for 1500 easily. They are bomb prof with very few parts to ever go wrong. New Evo sander and vac under 400 quid. 6" blade £15 16" s*p*r*lex trowel £25 Sanding pad 65p Would not take long to...

Thanks for the link but unfortunately stacked out

Top one is mdf I believe

By keeping the pft name it looks to the general public that you don't really have confidence in your products and suppliers. It's off putting and I think underminds the mtech and eze brands. In my mind its holding you back and keeping a pointless tie with the past

Im not worried about a app not working rossi46 is. He didn't get the information that he wanted from me and that makes me a c**t. I have no idea what your problem is Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

You bore me Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

Why are you so angry about it all? Rossi46 I don't appreciate being called a c**t. Just so you know I'm still using the plasterers forum app on my mobile. This appears to no longer be supported by the forum software? @Danny Anyways I'm not getting notifications or messages unless I logon to...

And on that note I bid you and this forum a good night. Ps What happen to all the good lads on here? Not saying you two are not btw Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk

I can see float and set being a niche market in years to come. But make a come back? Get real. There is not the skilled labour to even skim properly anymore. Float and set make a come back your living in cuckoo land Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
