The two chaps I started with use to make me use a mixer in a plasterers bath... I was like why are we not using a bugger bucket or a water butt?... it was hard work mixing in the bath....
 
Wouldn't surprise me if this was cream of tartar put in to small bags to sell at a large profit.

Unless you've been told otherwise Danny?

I've never used it myself but if cream of tartar works, wouldn't you just have a tub of that in the van?

I am not sure to be honest... I will ask the question...

I think it may be the case that it has been worked out to be exact for 25KG bag.. ie convenience :D

Lets be fair to the bloke he's probably used COT for years after finding out it even worked when some lad on site told him about it like the rest of us. I'm not knocking him for his product but it'd need to be priced accordingly to but it instead of from waitrose.

I'd imagine his product is just the key ingredient of tatar and not other stuff that makes it suitable for cooking with. Good luck to him for giving it a shot though.

I remember using an early monocouche product called cemrend, the stuff was delivered, a rep told us the crack, and we did the top half of a 4 bed with it, probably about 70 or 80 bags looking back, all mixed in a bath with a shovel!!!
My uncle who mixed it died last year, fook knows how he lasted so long![emoji23]

More Time With Extratime™
 
Fair play to the guy hope he does ok out of it, I suppose it will have a use but very rarely do I want to wait around for it to go off. It might suit colleges who teach plastering or maybe the DIY market. You can guarantee someone will throw the lot in for more time, but the age old problem of plastering is people playing with it so might not be the best idea. I think putting on enough to control is more important but some people like to stretch them selves. I suppose you could throw the full room on in a domestic which might be worth having. Interesting to see how it goes but I think something to send it off quicker would be a bigger seller and more useful.

the good old days :inocente::inocente: :lol:
 
Should be fun reading about all the horror stories of chancers using this stuff & banging on double what they normally would & then it all starts going off at the same time & then they can't keep up & trowel it up in time lol :rolleyes:

Suppose they could use the Speedscam as that doubles your meter age apparently :inocente:


Always read the small print :sisi:

hi mark from eazymix/ extratime been reading a lot of coments on my product.it,s there to make the job a bit easier.plastering is always a race against time.i understand plasterers wo,nt use it on every job it,s just handy to have if its an extra large wall or big ceiling.ot all comes down to how quick a spreader you are and if you want to take some pressure off

Yeah I was on about chancers & Cowboys horror stories because they don't know what they are doing, not the product.
But trust me there will be people on here moaning about something about it, there always is, someone moaning about one thing or another on here lol:sisi:

Welcome along by the way (y)
