I didn't mask the area at all there is really no over spray. This is the finish before painting.

Nice! Makes me even more interested.

Am going to kanuf in Dublin tomorrow to have a play with the airless. Looking forward to it can't remember the last time I was looking forward to be going plastering lol.

2 easy tbh Danny lol. I've been looking at graco mark v sprayers not cheap.

Keep a eye out on ebay

What's it like on reskims? Can it go over a floated wall in sand and cement or other backings? Like if there was a mixture of reskim and chases. Would you still need to prime the wall? What's the thickness once finished? Does it set hard? @Curry

It's fine on reskims it will go over anything and is self priming finish will be 1-2mm.

It will go over s+c, hardwall, mp75, universal one coat.

Once it's painted goes harder then multi

Do u find it un economical going of knauf backing plaster. It takes an age to dry out

Universal one coat through the Ritmo works well. Set time is a bit to short but it nice to use

6.50 a bag and it's drying in 3-4 days at 11-13 mm. Getting 2.5 M out a bag

Refina power float works well on it

@skim_I what do you use for any chases and how long after the backing coat is sprayed before you go over with the airless finish?
Knauf used to do a patching45 that set quick for chases.

If the chases are quite heavy I just use bonding. I then usually spray airless backing and leave overnight before the finish.

How far will your airless sprayer hose go to.
