Im due to do a job with it and never used it before, I try not to do rendering at all cos I f*ckin hate it but Ive been coerced into this.

I know you scratch it off the next day, but what state are you supposed to leave it in before that?

Do you darby it? float it? sponge it? or just fling it on and leave it till tommorow?
 
what ever you do mate , dont leave it over night this time of year or you will be hacking it off and redoing. get what on all you can by about 11 and it will be ready for I sectioning and then scrapping by about 2. We started spraying at 8.30 and had about 70m2 on by 9.40. then we were off and done by 2. ;D ;D
 
its a rule that you use before using the scrapping float, it takes the high spots off and leave a really flat surface. Its about a 1m long and if you look down the end its in the shap of an I .you hold it flat against the wall and let the two edges of the I cut the high spots away. there must be a vid somewhere of someone using one.

I've never used one but I always thought you'd use it like a darby or feather edge, on the angle. you learn something new every day

how do you lads get on avoiding scaffold joints

we spray it spunks so the gear is nice and wet plus we work hard, monkeys stays on the scaffold rulling while i do the spraying and run up and down loading the machine, we made an extension hopper so we can get around 14 bags in the hopper before we have to reload it.
 
a lad told me spray the joint with water and grind it in with a spat ......would this make any difference do you hink it could discolour ???
 
;D ;D.............everyones frantically deleting their history.........explain that one .....it was on the forum honest ;D

the worse ones when they come and sit next to you and the computer freezes

you close it up waiting for them to bugger off so you can sort it later..........................ooh youve finished with the computer can i use it ?.......................oh bugger
