send any sample requests to sales@k-rend.co.uk and you will get these sent out asap

why don't you use the silicone TC15 thin coat from k rend on this project any queries let me know

it will be good to hear what you think of the K1 feedback is always welcome let me know when you plan to use the product

onto thermalites use hpx base & mesh to help control suction and then your choice of textured finish - you could price K1

you should price the K1 spray - will be on a par with mono price and coverage wise

As long as the existing dash finish is sound and not boast, remove as much old stone as possible and this will give you a good key to render onto. Best basecoat to use will be HP12 basecoat then if hand applying the silicone FT k rend.

hi markie, give me a call to discuss your project - 02828 260766 k rend can offer you a range of external finishes suitable for blockwork - may be worth your while checking out our website to see if you would like to receive any samples of the finishes available.

As outlined in the application instructions krend should not be applied under 5 degrees celsius. krend also offer an accelerator now to help speed up the curing process hence this may be worth noting on your next job since this will help you scrape the render quicker than in normal conditions.

Might be a good idea to use the k rend silicone TC15 thincoat render spec on this site - colour samples available on request FOC

might be worth giving ryan in cheltenham a call on 01242 236699 regards ritmo machine and its settings,

onto brick and block you would be best advised to use a polymer basecoat with a mesh embedded in this - this will help reduce cracking and help to strengthen the render. there will not be a significant difference between using k rend and sand and cement - long term you will have to paint...

on your next job onto render carrier board - try out K rend Silicone TC15 (1.5mm) OR Silicone TC30 (3MM) thincoat render,

it is possible to over-coat existing krend with another thin layer of k-rend - using our R7 acrylic bonding aid. however, rendering onto a substrate such as a render carrier board this may not be possible since this type of render carrier may not be able to hold the additional weight of the render.

krend onto existing brick - is always best to clean surface & any algae first, then apply the R7 acrylic bonding aid, HP12 (AND OR HPX base if you prefer) before application of your silicone topcoat.

all K rend specifications for scraped textured renders outline that after applying the silicone FT (final coat) that you should 'rule to line and level and allow to set' , before scraping. this helps to eliminate the chances of large tolerances in the surface of the render when complete.
