    I’ve been using Bastick flow bag and bottle screed today in warm humid conditions and have just been unable to obtain a good enough end finish, as screed is drying to quick and Becoming unworkable leaving trowel marks and unacceptable finish

    Ardex CL the best flowing bag and bottle mix I’ve found but yeah the warm weather certainly doesn’t help, try keeping the bottles in a large bin of cold water

    Always keep the bottles cool. Best sand it down now and feather finish it
