Knauff ready mix

[Dillon]

Any body know what Knauf ready mix easy sand is like to sand I have been using it today and TBH it don't coat up to bad.

[TonyM]

Isn't it just Sheetrock, as they took over the UK side of the company? If so, you can sand that by just looking at it.

[Dillon]

That's interesting Tony I actually quite liked it to coat up with, haven't tried boxing with it yet coz im on day work Nice buckets so I blagged them.

[DMC]

Good to use and sands a treat

[Dillon]

Well Im in love with this stuff it boxed on great and internals went on like a dream, going to have to find a good source and work out some prices for it.

[E.K Taper]

As said previously, sands very easy. Don't go near the internal angles with a new disc though! You'll be right thru to the paper

Ask Marcus,
As I know Knauf took over sheetrock Europe, But the buckets I still get have sheetrock on them with a little Knauf stamp on the side!
If it's just Knauf on the buckets it could easy be their own stuff which I did like! They had blue lids I think!

No mention of sheetrock on these buckets just says Joint cement light.

Yea light joint cement was good stuff but expensive!
Never really trusted it for putting tapes on but I have never heard of anything going wrong that I've done!
Great to box with and float out beads etc.
And sanding was good as u can go a bit lower on the grit and it doesn't scratch!!!!

Funny you should say that I have just tried the Freemans and yes its great boxed on great and internals too, havnt sanded it yet but don't see a problem with that either. Trouble is as a house basher working for a pittance I just cant afford to use it and nor do the people I work for deserve quality gear for the rates they are paying. So sorry Marcus it will have to used for private work where I can factor it into the price.

£7.50 a box which works out at the same volume as a bucket!
If u can buy any buckets of readymix for that price please tell me where and what kind is it?

[thomas.savage]

arrow per ltr mixed is £0.45 freemans per ltr £0.53. not much in it. sad to say every time i phone up to order get told non in stock. still thats better than befor belmore special take your order dont bother telling you they dont have product and nerver return your calls. great product shame about the cowboys selling it.
