    Plastering over artex

    Not fantastic, But they must have been f**k*d. Going by the freshly plastered images, they already did a fair bit of dubbing out to be drying like that. Also being governed by the coving line there's only so much they could do (without removing it) and killing the line. Probably double the...

    503 Premium S.B.R. Bond Ratio for use as a primer

    Depends what your going over - and what your going over with....... plaster? Render? Paint? Filler? Generally 5w - 1sbr for dusty/s**t substrate or thermalites 3w - 1sbr if not too bad 1w - 1sbr is a decent mix, controls suction very well Neat if you want to get away with 1 application...

    Render advice

    Needs painting now The textures in the other pics are not a million miles off each other. It's pigments. Good couple of coats of masonry paint will look 10x better.

    I usually price it in, Unless it's a special case or unusual work, or if there's s**t loads of dubbing out..... Bagged gear as you know is generally decent with consistent set times, Gone are the days you're at the bottom of a big flank wall in looking at soaking wet render that refuses to...

    Hp12

    They're OK All ocr's should be ok as they usually have lime and additives to give them 'give' Normal s+c (without decent lime or sbr) could be agg and too rigid for him to coat over with.

    Hp12

    No Wouldn't do it Hp12 is high polymer and has a fairly good amount of flexibility. Spoke to their tech a few years back, and we concluded it'd be around 4 to 1 ish (adjusted and with the additives.......) If you s+c over it you'd probably need at least 1.5l of sbr per guage, to maintain...

    Wet render

    Poor design. So many new builds are having the same fate round my way. Bad copings and brick on edge, not even a creasing tike to slow down or redirect the cascading water. Architects have lost their way. s**t design focused purely on aesthetics. Got to get the water off the building as...

    Hp12

    It's good stuff, just doesn't like to be on too thick. Crack resistant and sticks well, also usually pulls in and tightens up reliably so you can get done in good time. They released their new ocr the other day. Re released as gp mortar. I think it's a bit cheaper aswell.

    Advice please.

    If you're worried about damp, blue grit could delaminate. If you can't be arsed to get it off, you'd be best with salt resistant (damp) plasters. Search for Wykamol plaster. Or Safeguard dry zone plaster. Your guy may or may not be familiar with them, and they cost more. Also slightly...

    Newbie with a render problem after selfbuild

    Not lime plaster/render, definitely doesn't look it Looks like plate cracking. Lime (hydrated) added to muck doesn't make it lime based. That's too strong a mix (rigid) over weaker or more flexible backing. Don't f**k about with lime paint, contact Bedec or kingfisher, they'll sort you...
