    How does it not make it waterproof if it stops the rain from penetrating the plaster

    Starting up soon. Do you think a 1 Plasterer and 1 labourer will be to slow. Its going to be private houses anything between 2000 and 3000 sq ft houses.

    Lime in the mix

    Prob been discussed before but can’t find the info. Was thinking of going back to the old way I used to render. 6:1:1 Sand:cement:lime. Anyone else still use lime and for what reason

    Darby / Seratted Darby

    Any of you guys use a plastering darby for anything. The legend kirk Giordano uses it all the time for his stucco. Would love to use one for a traditional sand & cement render but there's no way you could straighten properly with the we thing.
