prefered gear

[nickelarse]

for internal work, what would u guys prefere to use based on cost, r+s wear and speed. onto either block or brick.

 

[Gibbo]

cpi

 

[spunky]

Does CPI cause a lot of blockages?

 

[Gibbo]

no spunk it dont you only get a block if you havent prepped the hoses right or the gears to stiff

 

[theblones]

mp75

 

[Gibbo]

or as ivor says

 

[theblones]

lol when i got it

 

[southernmonkey]

tight shorts and a cropped top

 

[nickelarse]

iv never had a problem with cpi atall. sprays nicer than hardwall on the ritmo. only thing i find is its a bit more expensive. just pricing a knock off and re render and set. about 60m and the cpi works out £60 more. pain in the arse really. but i think id use it out of choice

 

[spunky]

60 quid you tight **** lol

 

[nickelarse]

lol yeah i no. but its half a days money on a 3-4 day job.

 

[spunky]

You're having a laugh is that what you charge 120 quid a day ?

 

[nickelarse]

well..... no. but u no what i mean

 

[theblones]

how much is cpi and how far does it go inside

 

[nickelarse]

3.50 plus vat. about 1.5 - 1.7m2 at 10-12mm

 

[Gibbo]

phone them and give em the big spiel you might get a pallet free

 

[nickelarse]

yeah they did that for me before

 

[Gibbo]

and me

 

[theblones]

ive used it loads but can never remember its price. Innit alot cheaper in silo

 

[nickelarse]

u lucky sausage

 

[Gibbo]

in a silo think its about 170 a cube

 

[nickelarse]

would be good if they did the sprayable in the tonne bags

 

[theblones]

in a silo think its about 170 a cube

that works out 1.93 a 25kg dollop

 

[theblones]

£1.14 a meter square

 

[theblones]

it comes in ton bags aswell

 

[nickelarse]

not sprayable. only hand applied

 

[spunky]

See this is where it gets hard work

You still have to rent a silo and have power. But for schools and the like it would make sense. Bloke who nearly worked me to death when i was learning called me the other day asked me to help him out on a community center, hardwall @3m high 5.00m2, I've got enough on anyway but he's in trouble there and CPI would help him out, the only blokes he can get hold of can skim and that's it, 2+1 spraying in front of them and he might get out of the place in pocket but at present he has a load of wnkers on £100 a shift not performing! Hence the allright mate call.

Leave him to it and let him put his prices up
