Roller for uncoupling - TilersForums.com

I have used tm matting on a job once where supplied by customer . I didn't like it's stretchy nature I'm just wondering why somebody would use this instead of other flat matts like bal rapid Matt or codex

When I first used the TM mat I hated it I wanted to run my self over just as a excuse to get out of doin the job but now I've got the technique down I dont mind it at all

i use a spiked roller to press the mat into the addy

Just used this to put down some bal mat... Certainly pushed it home for a good fix .. Was suitably impressed .. Did the edges with an old laying on growl...But can be a little messy at the joints.. Just kept the roller clean with a sponge...

Cooooooool just searched for Raimondi roller and found this in Google images....



If it had a handbreak for doing some turns, it'd be a laugh.

I use 2 plastering towels. 1 to rub down and other to lean on over the mat. As for wet knees well use knee pad like your ment too..
