Search the forum,
there was one on Ebay like this a few months back and I was so tempted. 2 new sponge rollers and it went for £80 ish
The majority of my work is commercial so I think it will be ideal. Don't do much slate work and when I do it's only bits so wouldn't use it anyway
Where did you get it from mate? I've seen kwiksplit are doing them for £180
Cheers, the cheapest I've seen it so far.....
it's arrived! had one delivered to the job i'm currently on. got about 140 metres to grout over the weekend, can't wait to give it a go!!
It's a good machine.......but it is horses for courses n'all.......if you are doing pools, large floors etc......and regularly..............then its a god send.......

Peter i use the ordinary on your knees grot float, but must look in to another knees saving method.
Neil that was a great bargain ,i would have snapped it -up just for spares ! i expect the sponge rollers would be worth that ! i have used it on about ten pools not and still no wear on the roller sponge, only were my lad put it in the box-on wheels i made for it and assured me he had raised the front wheels ( but did not, little *&^% ) so when i got it out to use it next the sponge had dried flat on one bit :mad2:, still when it was wet it regained shape a bit

Peta, If you've got floors over 25m2 to grout get your self a Pedalo great piece of kit. I can easily grout and wash off on my own 40m2 in a few hours.
Some people say it leaves the tiles a bit wet, but never had a problem. Great on tiles and stone, not so good on uncalibrated slate.
don't loose the black bung, and buy a thick broom handle, the one that comes with it is rubbish.
