After some one has re grouted it, I'm going back to seal it 

Darran

why dont you point that yourself? You can make some good money on it.

I have just started using geofix all weather, Indian stone pointing in the rain is great fun!

Where you buying your Geofix from?  We sell about 4 pallets a month of the stuff and have it in all colours

Kev,
I'll let you know next time I get an Indian sandstone job 😊, Did one near you last week that was ideal for a rotary brush.

[Simon@Pristine Pathways]

Kev, get it local 24 plus vat. How much do you charge?

[chris scott]

Geofix is crap…it goes mouldy and if not compressed properly fails.Then again pointing on indian sandstone in general usually fails as nobody takes time to do it correctly.

[Simon@Pristine Pathways]

Geofix has its place and only use it on certain jobs.

I can guarantee if I point Indian stone it will last for years. I went back to clean a job I pointed about 5 years ago and it was mint, solid as rock! 

If they dont pay top rates they get geofix!

Simon

£24.63 + VAT to CIU Members so no advantage really and you would have to pay shipping with us.  So your getting it at a good price

Are you talking about GeoFix or Geofix All Weather?

Kev

[Simon@Pristine Pathways]

I never really rated normal geofix but this all weather is good stuff and seems to set harder. Kev is this correct or is it the same?

Chris dont knock it till you've tried it.

It's not putting the stuff in, it's taking the old stuff out that frighten's me  !

Turbo full chat - flys everywhere

If this doesn't work I am taking simon advice, and calling it Sammy sandstone !

Samson

If you don't care what it is why ask?  It now definately looks like sandstone but the piece on the left with a crack in it looks like limestone!  Your blown up picture has identified a lot of grout haze and excess grout in the pits and fissures especially towards the front leading edge. I would take care to point it out to the customer beforehand as when you clean it they will see it as clear as dat because of the colour of the grout.  I personally would clean it with a Mono Rotary coupled with a Medium Brush and an acidic cleaner subject to a test area first.

Kev

Kev I thought you aren't supposed to use acid on sandstone?

Danny

??

[Kev Martin]

Danny

No I said that most people think all sandstone is resistant to acid.  What I said is this is not always the case so do a test area first to make sure
