less stress use primer..

Yeh ok. Fine I'm just pointing out that it's not against the rules and it's easy to mix. Takes 1 minute and can be cheaper

well, mr DIY is wrong.

If you don't know or understand why pva should not be used, you are in the wrong job.

but like your other posts, this is just a wind up.rrr:

You use an acrylic or SBR primer on gypsum/plaster backgrounds when using cement based adhesive to prevent ettrignite reaction, PVA will NOT prevent this reaction... Simple as that ...that video is a joke ... His advice is going against BS5385 , but if anyone wants to use his advice , then good luck . :sofahide:..


if you you look for Swe's post on here (a sticky'd one ) he's goes into great depth about pva and tiling.

Think you are a bit to fiery on here my friend, and you are going to make a lot of enemies and not many friends with your comments
