Evening Vinn,
fwiw??
That has totally gone over my head im sorry. good job im not doing it to earn money eh!! Hope what ive done stays on then!

Fwiw= "for what it's worth" one of vins grammar shortcuts

The scratch coat is usually the first coat on the wall then the float coat then skim, but some times you have to "Dub" it out first to get an even scratch coat so you can float it. Well that's the way I have always done it !! But I am willing to learn "new" methods or am I missing something?

I was going to mention dubbing out tbh I never ever measured how thick my scratch coats were lol was taught to do a tight scratchcoat with dub if it needs it most times you can get away with dubbing out as you go but if the wall is too bad best to dub out a bit first

Either that or the Feb you put in if you put to much of that in it can effect how your cement goes off and also

It could have been that but it could have been that you put to much Feb mix in the mix the first time, to much will kill it also its supposed to make it pliable stop shrinking and easy to work with like lime so could account for your stickiness but glad you sorted it looks like your husband is one lucky man to have a woman get stuck in like you have fair play

 

[loren669]

You know stevethespreader, you may have a point there!! I have been thinking about the amount of Feb mix and it could be a possibility i put too much in the first time i will have to watch it for next time!

oh and thank you, my husband is a lucky man i cook, bake, clean, render, build, strim, chainsaw, tile, run, horse ride, karate oh the list is endless ...... cause lifes too short to sit and do nothing

=================================================

Gentlemen - and ladies in this thread

Please:
Thicker skins, and necks wound in, would be nice.
Stop calling people silly names.
Stop reacting when they're silly enough to do it, raise an Alert if you think that's warranted.
Stop jumping on every post certain regulars make.
It's all getting boring.

Otherwise we'll have to go though deleting rubbish and banning posters, which is even more boring.

Hello,

First the ratio between all the ingredients are on right rate.

For me the probléme must come on , low cement reactivity, beacause i take moisture
Cement could take moisture during storage ( bag open, storage room with some moisture , etc...)

Lol what he's saying is the cement was exposed to moisture in storage effectively killing it

 

[loren669]

oh right. Not sure how that could have happened, but know what to look out for next time. Thanks Stevethespreader

 

[Nige F]

Moisture from the air. The powder is probably hygroscopic.

 

[loren669]

Hi Nige F,
Does that mean i have to use a complete bag each time (it's 12 euros a bag) and not leave an opened bag until i want to use it next time?
If i put the half bag in a large air tight paint container can i use it later?

 

[Nige F]

The paint container idea sounds good - perhaps then try a sample from there before you cover a large area.
