Carlite finish

[Stylesh1995]

Carlite finish (red bag) is it good? Better than multi? And can you use it on plasterboard?

 

[Stewie03]

Yes mate you can use it in most interior surfaces like multifinish I havent used it personally but I'll be ordering some in next month,some top spreads on here have used this gear they will let you know but from what I've heard it's like using multifinish

 

[Stylesh1995]

Yeah I’ve heard some good reviews. Just wanted to double check before I go ordering a pallet. Don’t want to get caught out

Why wouldnt you just use multi?

 

[Stylesh1995]

Why wouldnt you just use multi?

Probably because there is a national shortage of multi atm?

It says on the bag not to add chemicals just wondered if it also means dont add backing coats

They're both gypsum based so cant see why it would cause any harm doing a magic mix

By chemicals does it mean extratime and them products

Does it say on a bag of multi that you can add bonding then? Lol

 

[zombie]

No

 

[Cockney]

No

Exactly!

 

[zombie]

Exactly!

But it also doesnt say to not add any chemicals where as carlite does

 

[Cockney]

What chemicals you concerned about adding mate?
Bonding?

 

[Bartholomew]

But it also doesnt say to not add any chemicals where as carlite does

Surely adding gypsum to gypsum isn't adding chemicals

 

[zombie]

What chemicals you concerned about adding mate?
Bonding?

Only concerned in that I do t know from experience how it react and also it says on therebags not to add chemicals are rework there mix etc.

2 things that it doesnt say on multi bags I'm sure it will be ok but dont have the experience of the product to say ok to practice on someone's home etc.

I wouldnt have thought so but I dont know for sure if or how it would react.
