Mixing Equipment for plaster & render

Plaster is relatively easy to mix with a paddle mixer. Gauge the plaster in the correct amount of cold, clean water; for skim plaster this is 11.5 ltr for a 25 kg bag, roughly twice the volume of plaster to water. Add half the plaster to the water and run the Megamixer mixer drill for about 30 seconds till the plaster is wetted through and any lumps are blended in. Add the rest of the plaster and run the
Megamixer till the mix is creamy and lump free. Test the consistency of the plaster mix by using a bucket trowel to check it is workable. Let the mix sit for a few minutes
