Used it about 5yrs ago last time and it was not very good. So if it has improved id like to know too and which brand?

Never liked sika ,like you say it doesn't plastercise the mix at all, its like pushing asphalt on the wall,I use a waterproofer called tri- mix ,makes a lovely drop of gear.

Yes mate good stuff. But you can't by triton stuff unless your approved contractor. So it's not much help to the OP.

Oh. I always thought you had to be. :RpS_confused:

We use this additive. Not sure what we pay as we have trade account. Never have any issues.

When we skim the render (DPC work) it'll hang for an age 4-41/2 hour sets in winter.

Don't like or use mastercrete john , I like brown bag opc,otherwise there's to many plastercisers going on,what with the added one in the cement and the one that the plasterer will add,weakens the mix imo,but that's just me:rolleyes)

 

[ballbag]

Yeah I normally use cemtone free flow or febproof plus. The sika was on offer so tried it and was disgusted to be honest!

Sika rendermix is good, works (externally for penetrating) and cheap @£7 gallon. Sika 1 a pain to use internally. Sovereign rendermix for internals is the bolli x :RpS_thumbup:
