best bucket to mix in?

[oasis]

i use then white tall buckets from travis...hold max 1 bag of skim....

wot else can i use...and the big yellow ones get yellow bit in the skim the mixxer rips u the bucket...

i use the flexi buckets, i also found little bits of the bucket when troweling up, but i dont seem to find them anymore, i think the buckets have toughened up a bit.

plus with flexi bucket, u can tap the bucket without breaking it. ideal when u mix way to much plaster  ;D

you can buy the same buckets in pink!! then it wont show the bits in the skim...
or you could take a file to the sharp edges on the whisk...
my new whisk did it for a bit then it must have rounded off a bit, i dont get it anymore...

it only seems to be when the buckets are new after you have mixed up a few times in em they stop doing it..
if it real prob just dont let the paddle touch the sides..

gorrila tubs all the way, get a bag and half of multi in em

I know a guy that owns a bakers and he gives us the big tubs tht comes with the yeast he buys. they are great, really solid and easy 2 clean, take 2 bags of multi finish.

i worked with a lad and we were mixing in hardwall butts and taking it out with a shovel .........then we forgot to wash out after the first mix so went back to skimming buckets ;D

a would say gorilla buckets cos thet seem like the toughest

if you use a spot board then it can only be a white plasterers bucket if you dig it out of a bucket then its gorilla tubs you want its easier and quicker with a spot board i think anyway unless your working in a tight spot.
