The Installers' Forum
Questions answered by installers who've done the job and by the Infinity team. It runs on Facebook, where you already are, and it's free for anyone who has trained with us.

Join the group
Tap Join the group. Facebook opens the group in a new tab; press Join group there and answer three quick questions:

Join the chat
Once you're in the group, tap Join the chat, or point your phone's camera at the code. It opens in Messenger. The chat is for group members, so join the group first.
Opening soonThe installers' chat is being set up. Until it's live, post in the group and you'll get your answer there. The Join the chat button appears here the day it opens.
The chat is for quick questions while you're on site. For anything you'd want to find again, post in the group instead.

Ask your question
Post in the group for anything another installer might want to look up later. Use the chat when you're on site and need an answer now.
A question that gets answered fast has:
- a photo of the job or the problem
- the product names and batch if you have it
- what you're coating (the substrate)
- the temperature and how long since the last coat
Not a member yet? The same button shows you the join screen first.
Where to ask what
Mix ratios, coverage, colour matching, prep, pricing a job, showing off a finished floor. Posts are searchable and the answers stay put.
You're on site, something's not right and you need a steer now. Quick yes-or-no questions and a photo of the problem. (Opening soon; post in the group until then.)
Finding your way around
Six things worth knowing if you don't use Facebook groups much.
- Find the group again. In the Facebook app tap Menu, then Groups, then Your groups. Or type the group's name into the search bar at the top.
- Don't miss the answers. On the group page tap the bell, or the three dots then Manage notifications, and choose All posts or Highlights.
- Find the chat again. It lives in Messenger, not in the group: open Messenger and look for Infinity Effects Installers' Chat in your chats. The button above adds you the first time.
- Search before you post. Use the magnifying glass inside the group. A lot of questions have already been answered, with photos.
- Post with a photo. Tap Write something at the top of the group, then Photo/video. Add the product names, the substrate and the temperature.
- Seen something that breaks the rules? Tap the three dots on the post and choose Report post to group admins. We'll deal with it.
Group rules in short
Be civil, keep it to Infinity Effects systems, no selling or recruiting, keep customers' photos in the group, follow the TDS and SDS on safety, and add photos to your questions. Any member can report a post that breaks them, and we'll mute or remove whoever did it.

The tools people ask about
Most questions in the group end with one of these. Each builder works out the kit list for your job.
