I became hesitant for a while 8)
 
Would like to see a picture of the "stänkputsapparaten" know what it cost and where it was purchased ;)

Really great results!
 
Go to the following link:

http://kgc.e-line.nu/servlet/us_pyra?wts.PAGE=h_ix3.htm&wts.ACTION=loginguest&p=H

There you need to look under "Handverktyg Mur & Puts" and then choose "Mur och Putstillbehör".

On page three you will find article number 5290 Stänkputsapparat.

If you click on the small image when you are on KGC's homepage, it will enlarge. I wasn't able to link the large image to this article.

I bought mine in Södertälje at Norfloor, but it can also be purchased at Beijer Betong in Bromma. At Beijer in Bromma, they have it in stock. I saw one there when I bought my putty there.

The price of the one I have was about 1300 kr. There is also a funnel sprayer (article 5288) on KGC's website, which you can connect to a compressor. This might be an option if you already have a compressor or need to spray large areas.
 
Very nice! :)

Thank you for the help.

I can add that the disc which can be attached to this device to reduce the ejection hole wasn't much use. The only thing that happened was that a lot of mortar got stuck inside the machine and I had to hit it against the ground to clear it while I was working. I operated it without this disc even in narrow areas and it still worked fine.

Maybe someone more skilled with the device could make use of it, but as I said, I found no benefit in restricting the ejection of mortar.
 
It seems to be a good device for those of us who don't have it in the wrist :)

Nice, I was initially thinking the same but I have a higher wall with more water pressure. How have you managed to avoid lime deposits on the road? Or is the water pressure so low that you don't need to?

Hello!

I have built my wall like this:

1. Foundation slab with drainage pipe below the lowest point. The drainage pipes lead to a gravel pit located at the edge of the road (i.e., very well-drained).

2. The back of the wall is clad with Platon-matte that goes all the way down over the drainage pipe.

3. Between the wall and the soil is a relatively thick layer of gravel to drain water before it reaches the wall. The gravel is protected from the soil with a geotextile fabric.

4. The wall is painted with silicate paint that is water-repellent, yet breathable.

5. The top is clad with concrete slabs where I grout.

With all this, I hope that no water will enter the wall. This in turn leads to no water "coming out" of the wall.

As for efflorescence, I can imagine it might occur if one only has plaster and no Platon-matte or silicate paint. I expect that the only thing that can "threaten" the wall is if water still gets in and bursts the plaster. However, I have "netted" all vulnerable parts to counteract this.

It seems well-built, doesn't it ;D
 
Don't joke :D

I'm in the process of moisture-proofing an exterior wall against rock and one almost becomes a bit too extreme in security thinking...

You have done a good job!
