ive seen the small pump, but with a bucket coat set up (hose and gun) what hose did you use and what gun? was it a thin garden hose like one or the thicker 19mm black one? and was it just the small silver lance spray gun used to spray? i think it needs a better gun as refina dont currently...

@Priceplastering Dont be upset , its only plastering , i was just trying to blend in with the rest of the forum by being a negative troll. :-)

no quite, just maybe the pump in some good action rather than some guy applying render very slolwy in a lazy looking way, and then the camara guy showing all what you have not done so far.

that video was as helpful as a doorstop in an archway.

done this for a year... did it on my house.... found out why its a no go. makes the surface skim brittle and weak almost dusty, once painted even when primed the paint bond is poor and can damage easy and pull away . After finding this to be true i went back to doing 2 coats with no issue.

Yes it sure does, but the fact we can control a large amount of skim very easily, work on it while wet and finish with a perfect finish and no water needed . And go home full off energy! The old way works, this new way moves on the game. Give it a try, im just sharing my tried and tested...

This is what ive always said, with the spats also, and i own all the tools and have done for years. The best way i have found is to speedskim your laying on, this removes lines in a way that will not show once painted, unlike the flexi spats and trowels that give the impression of a flat wall...

yes ive been using it on weber OCR

This new dimond faced float is the best. lets you get on the wall alot sooner with little grab.

19mm hose seems big!

new block work, no sun

did 30bags yesterday and spread 5L of accelerator over the mixes. had a few issues and sprayed on at 2pm ish we stayed floating until 9.30pm! back in today and all on by 11am and left at 6pm! hate floating this end of the year, prefer scratch back or spraying 1.5 bucket coats.

or you could get around most of the problems by Spraying the topcoats.... you can spray in the sun... can do large area with 2/3 people also you can stop if needed and spray back into your last area another day. lots of taping and wrapping up but a uniform finish with out so many restrictions...

Ive been looking at a local pump for sale its a Wagner PC830 it has a speed setting form 1-10 and i can see on you tube it sprays all the texture coats but cant see it spraying Mono or backing coats? do you think it will spray backing coats?

OCR backing is best - Weber OCR/ Silicone Finish - YouTube

i think this is it on you tube New Pump Test, (rapid cleaning ) - YouTube

just get a pump simple pump use a 12/cfm compressor and a conveyer pump from around £3000k cant go wrong no training needed. talk to Peter at Refina

Have you ever had the sun kill your Mono or should a good Renderer never get in that situation out of interest ?

And in good weather?

Someone i know is yes, trying to understand what makes Mono soft.

what about when a building has had a pre rend base coat first and yet still seems soft!

so if a building is brittle and soft its not always due to poor workmanship its more a case of the product not being up to the weather.

How hard should Mono be? iv seen jobs were its very dusty and you can mark it with screwdriver , could even dig it out with a trowel end! then others were it is solid! Why is this?

as said do a pissy mix, one bag should goes miles when wet!

lightly run the lines out with a trowel/ taping knife IMP its best not to use a sponge , we were told it weakens the basecoat and if top coat fails it will be clear water was used on the basecoat and void the warranty? anyhow lay on tidy , spat tidy, and run lines of the next day with a tape...

..

run the spat lines out with a trowel / tapping knife , they will be soft the next day. IMP no need to sponge a base coat , aslo we were told never to sponge basecoat as it only weakens the finish and will void warranty if top coat fails. when i compare areas i sponged to just finished with...

Spray finish is a very fine grade and is NOT for use on over skim -

Let’s not forget the reason BG came up with this "spray finish". Multi finish is not to be sprayed as it does not bond correctly to the surface and BG will not back you up if you spray apply it. Spray finish is a very fine grade and is for use on over skim, as the moisture will be drawn out of...
