With the pre bagged ocr’s some are waterproof like Parmurex for example.

Usually as a base coat this is good for when the humidity in the air rises like it does from October on then it is the usual problem of going on wet and staying wet all day.

Accelerator will help, but it still sets full of water. A bot different to when it sets and surface dries.

What I tend to do in the colder months but in a sand and cement sense is scratch coat with waterproofing in then a second scratch without.

This causing initial grab because of suction and dries the surface to a point.

There are problems to consider though. The waterproofer will send the water to the bottom, the top will soon dry and rub up but the bottom will still hang. If its a big wall then use accelerator and start at the bottom and work up.

I am not too sure about suction on other ocr’s like Weber etc. I usually put a ocr over a base coat so no suction. Maybe if the ocr’s that do suck then a scratch coat over base if costs allow.

I hate ccf. They’re arrogant ***** in Liverpool. Travis are the same group that’s why I ended up going there instead.
 
@Vincey We could set up a prices thread in the private section and list what, when, and how much we’ve paid then we’ve got an idea of a good starting point.

It is quite nice but it’s a bit stoney. Prefer OCR myself. Does skim over really nice though like you say.
Waterproofer in it is strong so outside this time of year it would be a ballache.
