I know this has been covered, but still looking for another trick to speed up Easysand setting compound even more. Other than mixing with warm water, or "dirty" water (from cleaning the mud pan), are there any other ways to speed it up?
When mixing a pan of it, every so often my stuff does set up way faster, but I can't pin down what I'm doing to get that effect. I work with 5 or 20 most of the time.
My method is powder into pan first, then tap water, then "slice it in" with a 6" knife, then fold & mash....and add powder or water to adjust as necessary. Any other tricks?
(Come to think of it now, it might be something like mix it thick like pizza dough, then thin it a bit and get moving. I'll have to test that.)
