i get it from my local ripoff ...sorry builders merchant Ridgeons......send me your adress via email fella...www.phippsy333@mac.com
, ill chuck a bag in the post for ya...think of it as a early crimbo present..think i pay rougly 3 or 4 quid for a bag ..about the size of roll of scrim...lasts a while tho , only need 10 g or so a bucket..use alot when doing timber frame buildings and moody old lathe and plaster coverup jobs...does speed your setting times a little tho......did u have a mare with the long render stuff in your mix?

Made by TDP ( tdp limited ) Warksworth ,Derbyshire, tel 01629 820011 www.tdpltd.com.....give em a shout and im sure they will tell ya your local retailer..200g bag and get the 2.2mm shred ones.....offers still there for the tester and its 20g per mix sorry..i put a good pinch in then whisk in water then add dust.....and only on 1st coat as sometimes in second you get fluff marks in ya finish
doesnt matter what they say it speeds up setting times..more u add the quicker it sets..but you do get used to it...

This job i'm on at the moment the rooms upstairs have loads of hairline cracks over them...should i scrim all these? can it be bought in large sheets? or would this Fibabind added to the multi-finish prevent them from coming through? ???
