Flynny why don't you phone up the guys who make these products and ask them these questions. As a moderator you should be giving the correct advice.
 
Brickies put waterproofer in the mortar so maybe you should leave it out of the scratch?
 
If in doubt follow the manufacturers specifications, then there is less likely to be a comeback. Ignore these clowns.

Spunky I've just noticed that your almost at 10000 useless posts. lol Don't think I've ever read one of your posts which has not just been a one liner of inane bullsh*t! More smilies pls.
 
The top coat could blow if theres a big f*ck of crack in it and lots of water gets in and freezes...although its more likely the whole lot will come away from the wall.

The frost will cause the crack then the problem gets worse, I dont need to contact the people who make waterproofers i know what i know im also a moderator who moderates the site not just here to give advise and thats the first time ive heard of brickys using waterproofer.

You don't know what the **** you're doing do you lol
 
Ok and the frost won't cause a crack on a render without waterproofer in the top coat? and the problem won't get worse?

Depending on the type of construction waterproofer maybe used in the mortar.

Features & Benefits
Improves weathering properties.
Reduced suction aids pebble dashing – larger areas covered easily.
Improves water resistance.
Reduces onset of efflorescence.
Improved application properties.
Supplements/replaces lime.
Drying shrinkage, crazing and cracking reduced.
Improved frost resistance.

FEBPROOF PLUS contains a highly hydrophobic material which is dispersed throughout the mix and thus reduces moisture penetration.

FEBPROOF PLUS also entrains air and this reduces capillary and water channel development, thus ensuring greatly increased water tightness and resistance to frost. In addition, due to its plasticising action, reductions in water content of up to 20% are attained. FEBPROOF PLUS slightly re***ds the mix, e.g. A 3:1 sand/cement mix will be r******d by about an hour.
 
Everything we discussed above Flynny pls note improved frost resistance...and supplements/replaces lime.

Your the one that hasn't got a clue or is stuck in the 60s xxx

LOL where does it say put in the top coat and scratch coat? Dont act like a smart arse copying and pasting what it says on the back of a product then ask a completely basic question about plastering. lol
 
Well they wouldn't say put it in the top coat because that really depends on what rendering is being undertaken and what time of year. But if you think about it where does a frost occur?
 
What would be the point of having protection against frost if you didn't put waterproofer in the top coat?
