Which smooth plaster for interior use?

In the context of turnkey construction, the client must, in my opinion, be able to rely unconditionally on the contractor.

This is what it's about. The OP was recommended red or gold tape by his painter. Sebastian claimed that gypsum plaster above cement plaster must end in a disaster.

My statement, quoted by you, referred to the circumstance and later in the thread the basis, that clients plaster their walls with EL and paint them. Then I may also assume that clients proceeding this way inform themselves about the possible consequences of their actions in advance.

The contractor basically owes a defect-free house

Correct!

and it is solely his responsibility to create a suitable construction schedule (including drying times, if necessary).

No. But this is supposed to change soon with the upcoming amendment to contract law.

To what extent does chemistry accelerate drying? Different solvent instead of water? IMHO, one can only influence the setting behavior (e.g., of a screed). The drying time mainly depends, in my opinion, on the external conditions.

Drying times of the screed can indeed be accelerated by using chemicals (e.g., from Lanxess®; but please don’t ask me for the exact name, I would have to plead ignorance). What do you think, how else does the red colleague competitor manage to keep to his advertised 3-month construction time including drying times?

You are mistaken, because apart from the fact that you rarely use a ready mix for KZ cleaning, even those don’t state anything about drying time - I have bags in front of me right now. Too many factors play a role here.

Then ask the manufacturer, he will surely be able to answer you reliably; after all, he is also responsible for ensuring that his recommendation corresponds to reality.

: You recognized well - it is just twisted in the way that fits best

So you are of the opinion that a BU has to be liable for EL? Interesting point of view. Rhineland greetings

You tend to exaggerate again - I never claimed that it ends in a disaster - please just read it again.

And sure, ask the manufacturer... he won't tell you anything about drying times because he doesn't know the conditions on your construction site. And again: hardly anyone cleans with ready-made bags when doing [KZ-Putz]...

EDIT: And no, I never said that a [BU] is liable for [EL]... You really have a vivid imagination...

You tend to exaggerate again – I never claimed that this would end in a disaster – please just read it again.

Not literally of course, but it fits in context:

@TE: Bad idea to put gypsum plaster over lime-cement plaster. That doesn’t get along...

EDIT: And no, I never said that a general contractor is liable for a subcontractor... You really have an active imagination...

And what was this sentence supposed to mean then?

: You recognized it well – it’s just twisted to fit whatever suits best

Discussing with you is like talking to a wall. You never stray from your tunnel vision that everyone is bad except the poor builder; not even when you have painted yourself into a corner.

With that, this topic is closed for me here; I should probably get into the habit of avoiding threads you participate in.

Rhenish greetings

Yes, exactly - that's better. I don't have to listen to your further insinuations either - if you look deeper, unfortunately nothing ever comes of it besides assumptions.

Your "Basta" endings in numerous threads unfortunately underline this more often...
