multi

[georgemealy75]

is it me or is the multi lately a lot harder to finish :-\ :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

 

[gps]

I cant say ive had any problems

 

[Pug]

no problems here either

 

[Casper]

Went back to board recently, much better than multi. More time, better finish, easier to rub up. Love it!!! :-*

 

[islandview]

the last few bags of multi i have used had a different smell to them. They smelt quite strongly of something like water proofer. They were no different to work with though.

 

[irish_spread]

noticed they taste a bit different aswell

 

[simplybesty]

dont use it anymore, always use mp finish is i have any skimming

 

[Chris W]

ive noticed that citrusy smell too... seems ok on old walls or bonding etc... bit dodge on board i reckon.. thought it was just me, timing / different backgrounds on the go etc...

 

[PhilPlaster]

Ive never liked multi. Its dead grainy, boards like cream the way it should be.

 

[skimmin2day]

Have only used board finnish for about a year now on all backgrounds reeskims hardwall the lot!!!.Dont really find any different to use what so ever but definately a better finnish.

Shady c**t! You know somebody who works for the council or summat?

i get mp finish for £5.64 inc vat.

it works out cheaper than multi coz it goes about 50% further. a 30m hit is bout a bag and half just over

 

[Casper]

WTF!! 50% Further? hmmmm, interesting.

 

[barryed]

Just scrape the multi on, say 1mm amd get 20m out of every bag. Bargain!

 

[simplybesty]

if you lay mp finish on by hand you will get about 15-18m2 a bag and you can lay a lot more per set.

 

[spunky]

is the mp one or 2 coat ?

 

[Pug]

one coat if you're spraying. can you lay it on by hand simply?

 

[kebab king]

in the last ten years i`ve only had 1 bad bag of multi.

 

[nickelarse]

one coat spray 2 coat by hand

were in kent can i get MP from m8te ill give it a go is it the same as muilti/board finish pva then lay on let it go then lay on the finish coat trowel up as norm ???

 

[nickelarse]

yeah pretty much the same to trowel up. slightly different, takes a couple of hits to get used to i found.

i get mine from sheffield insulations, but i think ccf do it

 

[Johnathon]

Used it alot it's really good but can be a pain getting it as not many places stock it, if your on your own and have a massive ceiling to do it's perfect as it takes ages to go off
