yeah them, but not nearly as much as girlfriends,,,lol,, why am i saying lol,,, its thetruth,,,

anyway back on topic,,

so you did the foam then expanda foam..
you then do 1 layer of grout, then one layer of PVA/water ?
Then the other 2 layers of grout?

What i did was 1st layer was a runny mixture of grout, PVA and water. 2nd layer was a thicker mixture with inly a small amount of PVA and the rest water. 3rd layer was thicker again without any PVA (only water)

You beat me to it smigga, I do 50/50 pva and water in the first coat of grout/render, and less pva with each layer, its a bit like using bondcrete when patching concrete, it helps the 'new' stick to the 'old'

you then do 1 layer of grout, then one layer of PVA/water ?
Then the other 2 layers of grout?

the pva and water isn't a layer, its the liquid component of the grout/render

as for the tantrum comments, I'm sooooo not going there

 

[najanaja]

sweet that makes sence, i was going to add some bondcrete.
so the PVA you use is just the standard PVA glue type?

 

[J-A-X]

yeah just the old aquadhere / wood glue works well.
make sure you put up pics
