He’s never had a problem as he’s never done a proper gauge.

I heard he weighs out 10 little portions from 1 bag of multi n freezes em

The difference between me and you is I don’t bullshit my fellow spreads, I don’t tell them gear is the best one day and then change your mind the next because actually it’s rubbish and falls off lol.

As for me and multi correct I’ve never had a call back for blown finish

It’s lovely to have you back into the swing of things Gordon! There was a bleak time back there when I worried you’d never fully get over the loss of @johniosaif ..... but you’ve picked yourself back up like a trooper and you’re once more marching full force to the beat of your own drum! Bravo! :maraca:

Selco doesn't have it down my way in Crawley, and it's not coming up on there website. I'd definitely try it if I could get my hands on it. Not got room for a full pallet

Pete honestly, hand on heart, I've never doubted that the Pure Finish is good gear, but while it's not stocked it's a non starter whatever the price. If BG scrapped their cheaper product that'd suit me fine as everyone would have to up their rates.
If you still think that 30p a metre difference is nothing then you're only pricing what we consider small jobs. Absolutely no offence intended.

Interesting this, and I propose an experiment in a house I'm refurbing soon. Just need 6 volunteers, 1 room each, 3 pure, 3 multi and we'll settle this once and for all.

I will of course pay fuel and provide lunch :inocente:

If your paying for fuel send me the address

No offence taken mate I do only do small jobs ,
Still think you should buy a pallet though ffs man you own a lake and said you had ritmo in unit you never used from new , 30 pence surely you can afford just to try it ,
Cost me to find all this out a bought
Three pallets of spray finish
God knows how many unifinish pallets
Took a day of work to go try dura at a demo day
And bought the pure

Tbf though I still have my fingers crossed that lurpack might try some so let’s see

Fair play to you Pete, I've worked through to find the best of the most mundane things such as staples, clout nails and beads.
If it was just a straight 30p a metre we might just swallow it in the name of efficiency, but that would only work if we could walk in (order odd quantities) and get enough to finish a project over full pallet quantities.

i will mate 100% - might try grab some this weekend.
 
Well , gave it a go on this bag of shite. Probably not a fair test as ceiling was all over the place.

However, pleasantly suprised. Put it on. New mix laid down it flattened in first nicely. Was able to finish it with barely any water like it used to be.

It made me realise just how bad the multi is

Hmm

@essexandy have you tried board finish lately
Click to expand...
We have a pallet ready for our job starting Monday. Had to order a whole pallet because Jewsons don't stock it. They did however say that they'd take bags back if needed. They wouldn't have done that if we ordered Pure Finish, which they quoted us at £7.50+vat.
 
Got to sell it to clients, absorbs gasses and all that, If it's nice stuff to use, split the exta cost with client, everyones a winner.
 
Fair play to the lads I hope you both have a better week with the board finish, maybe one day you might try the pure , until then best of luck

All paint up ok , the thing you said there earlier mate is key I think , if can use board or pure or even multi with no water always turns out better in end , it’s main reason I don’t like multi always seem to have to bash the water on to get a finish , next week after all this this week I’m gonna grab a few bags of multi myself to see.
Got a render on now but will get a pallet of pure when it’s done , I’ll message you and sort you a few bags , save you going selco mate
