ive only used the sponge.you can get on it when it's fairly wet so acts like a float really.
I had my resivations about it but after a few days it's a great bit of kit

Like u would without the power sponge!

And gp is the only stuff I've had a really bad blockage with so be careful.
It went off that quick in the middle of summer we were finishing it almost immediately after ruling.

I use a float for reveals and small area's
Yes it does pick up quick.its just like CPI render but with less waterproof

Have a small Job to do with this gp mortar will be going over spar scratch then top a Week later, was thinking of adding waterproofer In my butt for the scratch has anyone ever done this with decent results ?

 

[User___removed]

They say best to top when scratch is green.
I topped yesterday and just finished before it got dark!!

[HLR External Renders]

So I've been doing the finish coat over the past few days and I've got to say I'm not a massive fan of this
It's very like k rend gear,course and a little dead compaired to say weber OCR.
I tried to use the power sponge although ended up using a float which came out ok to be honest
It's far to gritty for me and looks a bit like nhl3.5 lime finish.
Ok really but not sure I'll be rushing back to use it again

 

[user__removed]

Do you the blue diamond disc? Try that instead of the sponge first then finish with the trusty car sponge.

 

[User___removed]

Is that the disc for the power sponge Rory?

It's a clampable R/S with the clamp pre fitted. Start them off loose and then tighten over time.

Don't over tighten as you won't et the maximum efficiency from it.

Worth pressure testing also to see if you need to tighten it at all.

Any questions, give me a call mate

Have you tried it one coat rob. wet on wet. i think that may be easier for finishing. I have been using HP12 to sponge up lately and it works a treat. Is there some way you could incorporate HP12 over the GP mortar if it was i framed back. it can be sponged immediately and is ssstunning to work with

 

[Rossi46]

HP12 is sweet to work with

 

[HLR External Renders]

I found it picks up fast that hp12 was it hang like if you scratched then topped on seperate days ?

This will slow the speed of the spray ? This is what I'm looking for as doing a few domestics and awkward bits to spray round .

Is it any good for spraying hardwall.

 

[HLR External Renders]

For base coats, and I'm teaching another lad to spray just think with it slowed down he can get his ribbons neater and he take a bit more time .
