I've not tried arenino in the end only tried rasolite, and that stuff sticks like s**t to a blanket. This is what it looks like after a quick flick, clemo says it's looks exactly the same like arenino tho

That picture isn't the finished product as I wanted to top coat it with arenino, but then clemo said it looks the same so left it, and cracked on with their mono, done it with a sponge and a float as noone done it like that before
Was hand applied btw

Then tried to get a bit off with scraper?
Thought you might have put it on to something painted?

I could've done that but I only had 2 bags, I need about 25-30 bags to do a project at home over painted blockwork

Looks good mate , I've got a butchered render to try to sort out for a guy I do work for and fancy giving this a go but so little info on how it finishes. I did ask bauwer for a sample bag but I think everyone got in before me !

I ripped the pb off the frame and was still on it after chucking it on the skip

I paid for mine, he did offer it for free, but seeing everyone was at it I thought I can blow 100 quid on it

Yeah I think I might do the same as I've got a decent size job I could use rasolite on too so it's not really going to cost me. Unless P1ss step in and repay me for all my t shirt advertising I do for them

 

[theclemo]

Thanks mate , is that sprayed?

No Mate did that by hand over Bauwer Light

Was it nice to use mate ?

Lovely tbh. It's piss easy to do. Trowel it on at about 2-3mm leave it for a while then sponge float it that's it.

No forgot about that lol. The white is cheaper in the Arenino £14 a bag. Other coulers £20 a bag will do 8m2 a bag

 

[duke163]

I'll try to talk him out of grey then lol . how white is the white mate ?

I agree buddy but the customer wants silicone tc finish sprayed so just using Rasolite as a base mate

It's does but I was told it's similar to parinter that needs finishing with something .
