For the life of me, I didn't know vegetable oil and bar soap are used in POP. What are they used for? Or is the materials not for a POP work?

They dissolve the soap inside the Oil..then use it on the Glass or board to get a smooth surface and avoid sticking

The Soap & oil: they're mixed together to help the casting Process.

Casting: is the process of creating Pop boards using fillers & water.

The mixture of soap & oil: is poured on the casting board/glass for easy removal of the casted pop when it dries off.

The process in pictures, the vegetable oil and the soap are first sprayed on the surface of the board before addition of the fillax and then the dissolved POP cement is spread and allowed to solidify, then the hardened board is then extracted as a white board.

Yes, we are producing with 8ft x 4ft boards, which we had placed a separator to make two boards of 4x4 ft. It makes the production process faster.

I continue to find this to be ridiculous. Why can’t they invest in aluminum scaffolding? It’s akin to masons telling clients to provide poun poun and shobiri.

But this is Nigeria, up is down, left is right cool

Oga mi, in your opinion, is the finished product easily transportable and can be manufactured offsite?

I truly detest the mess that POP guys create onsite.

Yes it can be manufactured offsite and transported into the site with minimal damage, but the mess it creates if made onsite could easily be erased by other building processes like wall screeding and painting or tiling in the case of floors. This is why I want my POP ceilings done immediately after wall plastering, and before the screeding or tiling.

In truth, POP paste makes a lot of mess as workers spread the paste around.
