What do you guys pay (or expect to pay)for a standard semi detached gable only. This year I've been using a couple of firms and there prices have been all over the place from £250 up to £500. Seems to depend on how busy they are as to what they charge,making it tough for me to quote accurately.

I'd give this guy a swerve ,as others have pointed out thin coat is only going to follow the undulations on the walls and doesn't look like mono. I have gone over a few bad Monocouche jobs in the past with no problems so this could be your answer,getting the result your after. The expansion will...

Definitely next day now with Parex,Fassa,Vimark and Presto

Yeah amongst other brands

Thought so,remember using the duo mix 2000 with the speed facility

Did the old Duo Mix have a speed inverter like the above Ryan?

Where are you based,may be able to help if your local enough

The motor on the M is only 1.5 kW and the l is 2.2 I think so I don't think it would be possible .

Cheers Steve

Only a small job but how's this gear behave as in spraying,setting etc Cheers in advance.

I'd go with Rigsby,bang it on late as on Friday and get up first light for scrape back then the rest of the Saturdays yours.

You can scratch back with it mate and finish with the blunt side,works great

Get a well used saw and take the handle off just leaving the blade and it will form it nicely.

Render bands could be an option?

The white staining on rhetoric reveals is where the material hasn't been scraped back ,surface latency.

Problem I had was the pressure gauge wasnt working but amps were fine , think we were at 190 on the water but I usually put a few inches over the rotor head also on start up.

Could be on the money there Arti, doesn't happen on my machine though

Parex goo Ian, funnily enough it was one of your machines and it was from Nuneaton. Absolutely in pretty much unused condition.

Helped a guy out on Friday with setting up his recently bought Ritmo L. I own a Ritmo M so set up was relatively simple and we were spraying in no time but we had problems when I put the gun down for 5 mins and then started up again, the material was fine and after 1 minute went pissy, filling a...

Swerve it

And all the dosh youll save

My brother is an alcoholic,had a successful body repair shop for twenty years plus 3 staff which folded.From then on he lost his girlfriend his house and has been in and out of rehab several times. In the early days he attended AA meetings but sacked them off saying it was all about religion and...

That's bloody lazy,on the first picture there is loads of clearance, ithink the only way forward here is to secure the stack tight to the wall and hope it hides any nasties as it won't patch to an acceptable standard.

All I can think is the measure increments on the tube must be different. I had to replace the flow tube last year and the new one has different measurement scale.

I think Les sells the caps?

Blue spray cap Owls, It's weird Bobby I'm on a Ritmo M and green float tube but on the G4 I used to have we sprayed between 260 and 280

It went well to be fair,I forgot to add that I changed the black spray cap over to the blue (knowing these fit tighter)and no problems with that blowing off. I think the key is spray wet and pump on speed 9 or 10 otherwise we found it would peel away and it hates block work with any moisture...

Cheers,which supplier do you use?

Just a heads up really,sprayed it again yesterday with the water set at 500 on the Ritmo. It looked really pissy coming out of the pump but sprayed fine and held up on the wall ok. Certainly took the stress levels to a new dimension this gear.

Like the idea of these,sound bomb proof ,how much lol?.

When rendering to these what's your method? ,without putting a stop bead against the frame. Some of my customers don't want this and we've been using different tapes only removing when the reveals are cut back to stop scratching the ali frames. Problem we have is removing the tape after...

Sorry M330

What's the main difference with the M300 and M300 Ryan?

That's good,Monorex no problem ,this stuff goes okay ish at first and then sprays in one inch bands after 15 minutes and looks heavy.We leave it alone for a while then touch it with the rule and it turns back into piss just like Blanc.

Lol,got another tomorrow, the hopper has been cleaned to with in an inch of its life and wiped over in silicone spray,mixing zone scrubbed and wallpaper paste mixed ready to prime the hose,also the gun airline filed. If this doesn't go sweet,Monoblanco and Ritmo M are best of enemies.

Just the standard b41 non clamped Rigs.

Ha ha like it.

Bobby,it was shite to spray,coming out inconsistently even on the wettest I'd dare risk. The product is one on its own, and is still a world away from anything else in the mineral render book.

Thanks guys,it's completely different to Monorex and one more elevation left thank God. Weber Chalk from now on if they want a Whitish finish.

Used this gear today and to me it's every bit as bad as Blanc du littoral. The machine bridged after 5 minutes strangely (Ritmo) and adjusted the water to get a decent consistency but the gear just wouldn't spray nice and the cap kept blowing off the gun. As with blanc,the stuff turns to piss on...

It's on the shelf next to the Artex lol

Designed for it,perfect base.

That's a shitter, we only had 30 m or so on,back for daybreak and it was like iron lol. Took miles longer to cut back ,Temps rose in the evening and strong winds,kiss of death for mono.

Are you not supposed to add sbr ie Lankolatex into renders below DPC ?

Completely normal with hp 12 at that thickness,your topcoat will be fine.

This is the problem with Mono,the bloody gear owns you.

Yeah Webers quicker,did a Monorex job on Saturday which was on for 10 and only got it opened up for 4 then finished 6.30 ish.

Wee bit longer even

As above really, its getting that tricky time of year when you risk applying in the afternoon.Going to try one tomorrow, only 35 metres in Parex and start spraying about 2pm. Bloody weathers all over the place up in the north west right now ,but noticed the material is taking that weekend bit...

As Mike said and acid where the pigment has run down the face brick
