yeah mate i'm well happy with it. It took 2 hours off a 70 bag scrape down! They've got a slowish speed motor so you can't do much damage if if you accidently dig in.
It's good to get the surface off so you can finish it with the hand scrapers, gets it pretty flat too - its been to hard to I section.

I recon the scrapers will last a month or so (depending how hard it is) but you can buy replacement ones, I think they're about 3 or 4 quid each - the disk takes 5.
We did try to put the I section over it but it was screeching like fook and had little effect but it still looked ok even with the sun down it
No I wouldn't use it if it was soft there would be no point, The I section would be quicker

Blones, whats the crack to floating up marmorit. what are the attachments you need?

I've been using the nail float attachment. I've seen the angled steel attachment, but I didn't know what it was for. I thought it was for trowelling or something. Is it worth getting one of those?
And is an orange sponge all you need, no floating disk?

are the angled steel disks any good then or does it do much the same as the nail float?
not used the disk yet but i imagine it will perform like an i section does
Did you try it out? Are you pleased with it?

A lot cheaper than new. This is like new but a secondhand one. Someone sold Les his job lot because of failing health.
That might be me if this elbow doesn't heal.
As I was paying my money over when the Rokamat rep was ringing to sell me one. But hopefully this will make some jobs that bit easier .
The float attachment I was thinking of velcro-ing some pads on for rasping back polystyrene boards with?

Am I right in thinking that this has a Hoover for drywall sanding, but also does scrapping renders and sponging with a water supply?
