Cement mixing

something i must say i have never come across,we sell a few bags a week,but have loads in stock and never had anyone complain its"off" and ours has been hanging aronud a while,maybe u got a bad batch?wobbley wrote:As said previously bagged "postmix" is far easier but do check the 'packed' or 'manufactured' date on the bag. It's best to go for bags that are weeks or days old rather than months. The additives in it to make it 'go off' faster mean it has a much shorter shelf life than normal bagged cement. I recently had to dig out 8x 25kg bags of the stuff and take it back for a refund because it didn't set properly.0
