only at sto mate i think. unless anyone got any on ebay
Yes parex make one, enewall etc,
They come in a pre measured tub that you add to each pale, they accelerate the set to around 6 hours, at 5c-10c ( the minimum temp to apply anything) at sand fine thickness so 1-1.5 mm obviously if your going upwards of that grain it will take longer, about 18 quid ish per pot.
They've been around years.

Cheers pal, will speak to Mark.. £18 per pot is a bit lively making each tub near a tonne :-/
So much more expensive thincoats over mono [emoji35]

Weatherbys is cheaper ben although the parex dpr range is meant to be the top end for quality
I drove past a job I did a few years back and the gear was let's say the cheaper end of the market
I've done a few parex dpr jobs also and they look fairly good compared
It's a tough one as we all want to pick up jobs and make a decent return
Someone was saying on another thread this country isn't the right climate for all these renders,and I think he could be right you know

Jub do a winter mix that goes hard after 12 or so hours.
Seems a no brainer for me

Yes but a tub of 1mm does around 14m square so it's only just over a quid a metre more to add on, if your margins are that tight I'd be worried.
About 20% dearer, but as said its one of the best about, maitie and parinter base costs are top draw. Wetherby base render is k rends gear rebagged.
Only ever used jub gear once and I wasn't impressed, it's cheap for a reason I found it very thin in composition, compared to marmorit and parex dpr.

Was you spraying it on for the 14 metres? i have used the sand fine handball and was a nightmare to finish,the grain was far to small so kept scraping it back off when trying to texture it.

Wetherby do as well https://www.wbs-ltd.co.uk
The colour range is limited though plus it won't be anywhere near as durable as it not silicone or acrylic based..

Lady at parex told me to contact them five quid carriage. Sig wanted 40 notes !
Hand applied, you need your base to be mustard too, otherwise it shows through. I mainly use there course 1.5mm though. Ive never really got on with spraying thin coats, or the base, a lot of messing about. I have lads that work for me on price and they still hand apply it, and they have various machines, that tells the story for me.
There acrylic what ever the name of it was, just found it very watery.

Your not kidding with the base, has to be like glass the slightest bump or trowel mark and you just scrape the texture back off.
