Hello all
Had a little experiment last weekend.
Had some patching up to do over the weekend - about half a moderate size wall, back to blockwork.
I've normally used Bonding in the past, but thought I'd have a go at trying something different this time - Hardwall.
I would say I found it is less granular, dries slightly whiter in colour, was slightly more expensive than Bonding - but other than that, I didn't really notice much difference (I am only a novice DIY!).
I know the data sheet says that it produces a harder result etc and found a few threads comparing them, but little posting as to what you all prefer.
My questions are
Which backing plaster do you prefer? (or even render)
If you switch between plasters, is it a hard and fast rule based on substrate?
Interestingly I also found that my local shed has stopped selling Browning now, and only stocking the other two. So I'm guessing Browning is losing popularity?
TIA
