Cheers malc. What's the price on it mate?

Don't put it through your machine mate TRUST ME!

I know we all have our own way.But go for 4 sets a day.... I know that might sound crazy but it works. Go for 8 -9 boards a gauge and get your sponge out.4 x 8-9 boards a gauge x 5 days plus your done for 4pm.Two hour gauges on plasterboard .Shaaaabbba ranks time

I'm trying different bagged basecoats for jobs instead of the usual 4/1 sc. So far I think Alsecco have some nice stuff. Just a shame their delivery charge is so high. Anyway I've got a nice autumn leaf stippled render job starting and wanted to know if any of you lads out there would recommend...

Spot on clemo are kid

We all know what this games like. After the busy times come the not so busy ones. I've just got to take it while its there chaps...... It will soon be Christmas lol....... Ps not plastering related but a great signing by the toffee men today .Toffee power

If he wants £70 a day are kid put him on pric. No one wants to graft anymore me arl cellar works with us. He's close to 65 still throws his meters in and labours.people are shocked when they see him move.Byt that's what he's done all his life. He first started labouring on a 3 nan floor gang...

If it works our kid fair play

Board finish gibbo. Used to be a dark red with little black grits in. You could just give it a couple of flattens and a little bit of water to finish .Nice stuff used ti pick up a bit though

I think another reason why people use the sponge is the difference in board finish over the past 20 years.I remember it being a nice dark red a bit gritty and it didn't take much water to finish.The plaster it's self done all the work. The stuff that's coming out the bags now is shiney and...

We use a different trowel for putting on. Then a different one for sponge And a different one for final . Certain trowels at certain stages of the set really come into there own. You would never me admitting this a while back. It was strictly flat brush,Mt ss and Mt carbon. Always has and...

I meant three different trowels for the set

Let's get down to business. If you are going over plasterboard and you know what your doing. One coat sponge will earn you decent money.no matter how low the prices go. If you do 3 quick gauges you will earn ok money. If you do 4 quick quages you will earn decent money. Remember it's all about...

Just started using it mate. Not too impressed to be fair. I've used it on two jobs this weekend as a basecoat but I don't think I will top with it as some of the lads have said its full of boulders.I've seen lads use it on the new aldi in fazakerly and it was a so so finish.

Lets not talk about 3mm.ive been doing a few test samples with 3mm top coat and can I hell rub it up. Phoned up supplier in and they told me the best way to achieve acceptable finish was with timber battern or eps??? So gave it a go and it still looks shocking.so order in 2mm and going to spray...

Sounds like we've got a long day ahead of us

I dont mind it to be fair. Takes me back when I used to labour on me arl mucker. Mmmmm hardwall.

Hi, Any of you fellas used this ? Id like to know coverage rate per bag and what its like to rub up . Been using more sand and cement recently and I ain't to impressed with the sand that I'm using, so looking for alternative. Cheers

Yes mate.try alsecco sockelputz lp.

There seems to be mixed reviews with the mp75 which is what I'm after, apologies if I've got mixed up with mp finish. Think its better if I get a few bags and have a spray

You're correct it was mp finish not mp 75. There seems to be a bit of it going in the north west atm so Id like me and my team to learn it. The prices are pretty good so there. Must be a shortage of applicators up these parts. What's the market like were you guys are at? . I've spoken to...
