Blue Grit.

[PlasteringScot]

Three years ago when I was a first year apprentice I was working on a job in a pub, and my boss(foreman) told me to just bluegrit the tiles. So I did.

my tradesmen at the time skimmed over the gritted tiles, despite telling me they would never do that themselves, but what e boss says goes. Got a random message from one of those guys today "just took a p!$$ in that pub where we gritted they tiles years ago, not even a hairline hah"

is it really that good? Would you ever plaster over tiles in any way shape or form?

I aint done it but fair play if folk have got away with it for now!!:RpS_sneaky:

 

[beddy]

I did it in pub toilets. Bondit bonding and skim. Dunno if it's still on. Couldn't give a **** either

 

[windy]

Done it twice with wba looked ok but didn't feel right... Obviously check the tiles are correctly bonded to the wall..

According to 'Plastering-an encyclopaedia' by W.D.Stagg this is perfectly normal practice.

Pmsl. Blasphemy

 

[andre]

I won't leave home without it.
Trowelling a wall flat is unacceptable these days. Rather be taking refreshments.
