Addy going off too fast

2,3,4 degrees I still don't think its good practice,horses for courses mate,you think it's ok to leave addy in van and re use next day,that's your call I'm no having it tho regardless of chemical reactions
cheers

I'm not in the habit of doing it, I was supposed to do the job last night & couldn't arrange a key & the addy was still in the van.
It's not good practice but there is technically no harm in doing it as I've stated.
I had grout still mixed in the van also as I had came off another job & it was gone this morning so that got binned.
 
Is that you toeing the party line!why don't you use ready mix?
ready mix has its uses
Maybe I would use it in a kitchen, on 10x10s but that would mean buying it for that purpose,and I always have a bag spare so I would rather use that tbh
 
don't think I was being argumentative,just didn't agree with the practice,stef thought it was ok I didnt,we move on
That's the beauty of a public forum we are all allowed a say wether you agree or not
Just to clarify I didn't agree
Who's Brian btw
 
Thanks to everyone who posted, very amusing/informative!

One earlier reply mentioned adding a little water to a mix just to loosen it up as it gets close to going off - is this ok to do? I've always understood it wasn't a good idea...This would help me immensely at the moment given the problems I'm having. I've got half a bag left so I'm mixing very small batches. Looks like I'm going to be one tile short due to my fun and games with my cutter (see other post), how annoying is that?!
