spraying thin coat renders

[plasterjfe]

want to know if anyone has sprayed genesis basecoat

 

[southernmonkey]

no but i got their new album mate

 

[southernmonkey]

i've never actually heard of it

 

[merlin]

think theres a sprayable one ,better of asking render systems he uses dryvit.

 

[plasterjfe]

there is a bagged version but they dont push it in this country they like you to use the resin version with add. cement

 

[Render Systems]

Dryvit Genisis base coat has to be mixed with cement using a paddle mixer so it would not be put through a machine... however if you used Parex Maite base coat this just needs water added so that could possibly be put through a machine... however the problem you have then is spraying it thin enough... then you have to stop to embed the mesh... i would just stick to hand balling it... but call manufacturers and ask...

when spraying thin coats it does not need to be fast just use a slower rotor and stator u can stop comfortably to bed mesh or can use the machine to fill tubs on the scaffold saves loading out

 

[southernmonkey]

or you use a ritmo and turn the speed down

 

[Gibbo]

that would cost you 8000

 

[theblones]

r they as much as that ?????? oo betty

 

[merlin]

we use d43 and a 20mm nozzle,sprays nice too

 

[theblones]

20mm nozzle, i avent seen one of them yet. biggest i used was a 16mm

no the resin wont spray because you have to mix cement in but there is a bagged version of genesis they dont push it over here but I wondered if anyone had sprayed it before on their travels
