what background you flicking it onto

on to floated krend ian, ive done it before but with the tyrolean gun, just wondered if its poss with ritmo

I've done a fair bit of tyrolean with the ritmo, using the texture gun and big compressor, but with the air turned down low. I have always premixed the gear and poured into the open hopper and have the speed around 2.5 / 3

pretty much as wezly says. the texture gun is for texturing and the bigger compressor will give you a desired pattern. very quick

so it wont do it with the onboard compressor ?

I don't know if it will blow it on fine enough. I've only ever used the big one, although end up turning it down quite low, I don't know is the honest answer.

I've used a refina mortar gun with hopper using just the centre nozzle and kit and 1 tool compressor. I used k1. You need someone with you hopper up cos that compressor doesn't half push it thru

No although you can achieve a roughcast finish with it.if you want a fine tyro finish you will need the bigger compresser and gun

When u say texture gun. Do you mean the swing gun I have or another gun like the new one that does all things to all men

 

[PFTwales]

Swing gun is a texture gun

 

[plasterjfe]

Swing gun is a texture gun

Yeah so you using the bigger size nozzle for this application laaa

 

[PFTwales]

it depend what texture u want to achieve. u gotta try and see what suits best

 

[plasterjfe]

Its gotta be bigger than tyro for my liking.
Will my swing gun run from my 25mm hoses tho ?

 

[PFTwales]

yes

How much is a 22mm hose

 

[UKPlasteringmachines]

Do you mean 19mm hose @Curry i have one of those in stock

 

[Curry]

The one that the swing gun will connect straight to. I'm guessing I just use the r/s with a reducer?

 

[Curry]

How much mate?

 

[UKPlasteringmachines]
