Plasterers pregrit made by bond it yellow in colour better than feb blue grit
If you have never hadcomebacks from using pva then these products are just gonna frustrate you and slow you down.ive been using betakontakt for a long time now with no come backs but after the unifinish debackle am wondering if ive been conned into thinking its better than pva. So much so that im going back to pva now on jobs.They can also be a pain to get hold of whichs is not the case with good old pva.
Spunking on the wall is better than blue grit
We find pregrit when rolled on not to as heavy in grit as blue grit meaning not so much skimming is needed to first coat ,as pregrit has a finer grit , rolls on easier, and holds the skimming back more than blue grit IMO
All depends on what Job we are doing weather we use it or not one room reskim no just PVa , couple of rooms walls and ceilings me and my mate would nip in night before and prep ready for good start mixing at 8 instead of 10 , to be far most jobs I price with or without pregritting we get . Use it a lot when we are bedding render mesh in the skimming and full house reskims
if its just a day job ill send the boy or drop the boy off about 3 o clock let him put down floor protection etc, let him prep the walls and ill go to the merchants, pick up gear. Blue grit can be diluted also? 10 Litres, pour half into a empty 10 litre tub then top the two up with 50- 50 pva n sbr,( Danny Mac tip) what you may think your losing time the day befoe you gain next day.start coating first thing,saves so much time, feckin about with pva ? Especially if the original walls are allsorts ,,ie old plaster patches, paint etc. Controls suction so its all dryin at the same time:RpS_thumbup: .works for me
how will it slow you down and frustrate you?sire:RpS_unsure:
Why have you had cracks at your beads spanky ? Are you puttin your beads over original wooden beads?that's the only time I've seen that happen?:RpS_unsure:
I always take them off spanky,to much of a hit and miss. Used to leave them in and sometimes crack sometimes don't? Not worth the hassle of a call back.:RpS_thumbup:
Right you bunch of moany *****. Iv said this a thousand ******* times and I swear this will the last time I say it coz I genuinely don't give a toss after this. Go to encon. Buy yourself a load of tubs of micro. It can be diluted pretty much 50/50. And yes, with water you piss taking wankers!! It can be applied and skimmed the same day. It's better in my opinion than all the other bonding agents iv tried. It works out at worst the same price as pva, I think cheaper. Now stop moaning about bloody grit sizes and time and price and just buy ******* micro. It does everything your moaning about.
Rant over
