    No it's an 8min soke. Always use readymixed paste for the lower water content. Beeline yellow top is a good one following guide

    Wayners,

    Yea I always use Ready Mixed. I do thin as I run paper through machine.

    Tried Nononsene, terrible results, paper shrunk when dried. Currently using Wickes brand, £13 for 10kg, good result!

    Thinking of trying flake solvite with added PVA?

    Wickes is good stuff imo. Beeline yellow is good. Stick with them

    Another vote for Wickes. Great and it's cheaper than most.
