Talking about POP/Screeding, you have a choice to use the street brands like Accurate Glova Tenq Bristol Forever Kings Vicar Peculiar DN With these brands, you also need to get the likes of Top Bond Glue or its substitutes and either white or black cement and water which must be added to the mix before the screeding can commence. What I have noticed is that the consistency of the mix is different from one screeding professional to the next. I have worked with two, so I speak from experience. Or you can use the big names like Berger Paints Rufhide, Portland Paints Sandtex Screed which are ready mix, quick drying and do not need the addition of Top Bond and white or black cement. If you use the later big names, you can guarantee consistency of the mix across your project(s). When I asked the guy from Sandtex he initially said 2 weeks between external screeding and painting and subsequently revised his wait time to 8 days for external screeding. I am going to ask him why he said 2 weeks first. He also said 7 days wait time for internal screeding. Will speak to the guys at Berger Paints tomorrow and report to the thread. |

FEGEITOK:Pre and post tensioned concrete slab No go area to DIY builders Cost Very expensive Alternatives Solid slab Ribbed slab Working principle High-strength steel tendons are positioned in ducts or sleeves before the concrete is placed. Once the concrete has gained strength, tension is then applied, pulling the tendons and anchoring them against the outer edges of the concrete, before service loads are applied. |

lahizak: Nothing comes down in nigeria , if it does it’s temporal ![]() Am always front loading or buying way in advance most of my inputs , funds permitting . e get why Just paid for another 900 bags of superset, don’t need it now now . Got a deal for 3700 from a dealer , Will probably take it from him in 2 to 3 months time . One of the ways I make serious money in other businesses is keeping good stocks of inputs I bought cheaper than competitors when it was cheaper and they were procrastinating . Am always amazed people don’t stock up regardless of the funding level they have . Petrol might be 320 next year . All the best 2 Likes |

Born2conquer: 99.9% of this Schemes are Fraudulent. They will promise heaven and earth when they want to get their filthy hands on your Money. But when it is time to pay ROI, then the stories will start. Everybody loves to make a quick buck on their investments but these are not investments, they are MMM-type of Money-doublers. ![]() I can assure you that you will not get the #1.14M and your #2Million as well, best case, they will pay you with "Digital Money" on their website but will never credit your bank account with real cash. Go on Telegram, you will see thousands of people defrauded by this Schemes, including those that claim to be Digital Agriculture based. I will have posted a publication which is in PDF, by the International Centre for Investigative Reporting, which details their findings on these Crooks looking for unsuspecting members of the public to defraud. I cant figure out how to add PDF file of 965kb size But then, it is still your money.... your decision. |

EgunMogaji2: I will recommend a Painter to you, that you will eventually recommend to others, His name is Ayinde. You can reach out to this Painter on his WhatsApp number is +234 * 8059 - 766 * 180. (If l knew your number, l will forward to him and he will call you first, but l dont) I know we dont want to recommend Service men / Contractors around here anymore due to betrayal of trust but l will recommend him ( he is not on Nairaland ![]() Good thing is, his charges are moderate and dont reflect the level of work he does (I just hope 'abroad' people will not open his eyes to too much money and put us at a disadvantage ![]() He and his Team are also from Ibadan but does most of their Painting work around Lagos Mainland and Yaba Axis on Lagos. He is a young Man (Gbadexy has met him before ,when he supplied paint to one of my friend's House that the Painter did) and is very detailed/neat with his job. The only way l can compensate him for always doing a good job, is to recommend him to others, especially people like Egun who have set minimum standards. Edit: I saw a phone number on your signature and willcopy him, to call you. 2 Likes |

Something tells me that due to external forces of the sun, rain and the weather one should not economize on exterior paints be it screeding, matt, emulsion. I ran a search on Nairaland and there are less than 5 posts on rufhide(4 posts including 2 by this OP and 2 by a marketer) or sandtex screed(all 2 by this OP). Does that mean we don't use those or we don't leave reviews after usage? Or are we keeping what we use close to our chests? Infact very few posts speaking of comparative analysis between various paint products. Saw a YouTube video of a professional painter from Australia warning about a certain Dulux product but recommending another Dulux product with reasons. Here is the series of 4 videos I am talking about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SX64e89RuU We need more of those on these streets. Let me share my experiences, my professional initially used Accurate for internal walls, but complained that the quality has gone down and that he has had to use double the quantity he would have used in the past to do my work, that the consistency of the product has been altered for the worse. He then recommended another street brand, but I have opted for a higher quality than he recommended for the reasons posted in the first paragraph. 1 Like |
