Honestly peeps. I've wet dashed for years and also used k-rend along the way. I've always hated the stuff but nobody does it around hear so it's hard to refuse because of the inside work. I can do it but this wet dash is drys out funny. Everything by the book to. It's not blown and the hair line...

I did everything I got told on here today and we done a 30sqm gable drop by lunch and after an hour or 2 it started to show tiny little cracks in the rough cast! Somebody help me please!!!

Temp was 18. Cloudy with breaks of sun. Was in shade first thing when we did it but in direct sun later in the afternoon about 2 hours after we did it! That ok?

I love it. I was just gutted when the rough cast cracked next day. I'm praying the gables will be ok Tomoz! Need paying. Lol

I actually think it looks a good affect! But I can't see it in the flesh! Knock off and re do

I thought we did in places! Maybe thick on beads. But hair line cracks all over so must of been to thick. If the rough cast starts tightening up in the bath would it be ok to run the mixing paddle through it for 5 then use

Nice thin coat of receiver and nice and wet rough cast then should do the trick!

Thanks for this! Will the rough cast have to come off that's cracked? You can only see it if you really look at it for a long time. It seems a big gamble of timing it right and getting the right thickness! Big risk!

Base coat already put on days ago, about 10mm.

We painted the k-rend sbr stuff on mixed with water, then base coated it while still tacky, then a few days later we wet the base coated wall and let it dry a little then lapped on the receiver quite thick about 10-12mm thick. Then applied the rough cast after we lapped on about 20sqm of...

Any help please before we dash any more in the morning?

Hi, where using k-rend wet dash on this new build and have applied this k-rend sbr and base coat to block at the mo which is all fine. Yesterday we applied the dash receiver and then dashed with the k-rend rough cast! We turned up this morning and what we have dashed seems to have lots of very...

The skimming sometimes hits the plaster board and after 5 seconds peels if ya go over it. Unreal! We have tried, different drills, whisks and tubs. Slower mixing on slow speed, tried just high speed and even filled buckets of water couple of days before and kept them warm thinking it was Icy...

New tubs every week mate, lads puncher them all the time. Not that.

Ya never lived! Lol

Tried this mate tried this mate. Still does it. Skimmed a semi out with horrid stuff but 1 day it was mint, back to normal then boom back shite again to finish Job off, strange!

A this happens to us to mate! Horrible

Hello guys, does anybody no what's up with our skimming? We mix it as normal in a rhino tub with a reffina mixing drill. Normal water out of tap with multi finish. About 6 month ago it started and is still going on. The skimming is like jelly on the board when it comes out of the tub. It looks...

Cheers again. 1 more thing, how long would ya have when backing coat is on before ya dash? Say in temperature 12-18, no direct sun light as its all shaded because next door both sides are tight. Back doesn't get sun till night and front is stone face.

Cheers for all this info guys. Would it be safe to mix The backing coat in big tubs with our paddle mixer next to where were Woking on scaff and at same time mix the dashing in my bell mixer at the bottom of ladder? Also do you put free flow or feb in with the dashing or is it already in it?

All plasterers should be able to board as fast as they can skim. Also be as neat! We are. I'm a plasterer and can board faster than dry liners and be neater!

Hi there, I'm gonna wet dash k-rend on a new build (block) with a sand and cement scratch coat first with free flow then k-rend as top coat with the k-rend wet dash to finish it. Is this gonna be the same drying time as sand and cement wet dash? Any tips? I've done lots of dry dash,wet dash and...
