Lads how much is this roughly a bag and who stocks it? Travis? Got a job we are doing in nxt couple of weeks.client has had a leak from roof which is now fixed so I'm hacking off plaster and slapping dri coat on it..can multi be used on dri coat aswell my little cherrypins?
 
Last I paid 12quid, they stock in Wandsworth travis, other Travis's have to order it in, you'll most likely have to get a pallet ordered in as they don't do part orders. I think board finish preferred over it, not that it matters

It will be a 2 day job anyway, you can't skim over dri-coat same day. Just do it in some prebagged gear as @Djr says above

As an alternative you could give @Bauwer a go

Only if you over play with it though, it does take longer though due to no suction

Chuck a good handful of dabbing compound into sand & cement and stand well back!
By the time you wash your tools up, it will be ready to skim!

Saving you another journey and £30 .... no charge!

I did a job last week with dri coat and it was 2 walls @1.2 metres chopped off which I left over the weekend. I had gritted the top half and over skimmed the lot after giving the dri coat a light mist spray first and finished a dream. Don't think I could do this with Bauwer!
