I've got some garden walls I'm doing, we've used MS-20 but didn't think it would dry enough to be done in 1 day so have done it as a scratch coat method Anyone else do this and also does the base coat need to be fully dry before we 2nd coat?

Debating using these on my house as I want my music on at a reasonable volume without the neighbours complaining If i dog and dab my kitchen with them will it make much of a difference or am I just pissing in the wind with them?

1st time doing this as I find hp-12 pretty s**t but I have to use it on a job, Obviously it's base and then mesh but would I be best leaving this to dry fully before doing the 2nd coat of base or would the next day be ok? Always find base coat bubbles/blisters in this weather in TC

I know what OCR stands for but I've always found them better with the traditional method of a scratch coat to even out surface and then a top coat another day. I have a job on Saturday that needs doing in a day it's only around 18m2. What's the best OCR to use, I've only used K-mix before...

Can anyone recommend what to do with these, plthe DPC on the outside of the house is lower than these but I'm worrying about damp coming through the floor. It's too deep to dot and dab over them as the boards would be 3-4 inches off the wall It's my own house too so I definitely can see it from...

Can anyone recommend one with to use?

Rendering over concrete panels, any ideas on what to use for this? In an area where most use K-rend and want to see the Krend branded bags. Can scrim and pin it as the panels are only about 10mm thick in places. SBR - HPX and then K1? Or for thin coat SBR - HPX - hP14 then TC?

We have a job to do and are deciding to do s+c or a premixed render, we normally do scratched /thin coat systems and s+c but want to give this a go Is it OCR or Kmix that we would use, also does this system go on the same as s+c (scratch and top) or just 1 coat then rub up? Cheers

We have been dealing with a rep for Johnstones who isn't too clued up on what he is selling so I thought I'd ask on here. I've a job that needs doing in a scratched finish at 10mm beads, Johnstone say they guarantee for this but I wanted to ask on here does anyone know if the key coat primer...

I've got 2 ceilings to skim tomorrow so I went round today to check they were all stripped on the way home and one has a very shiny surface, he needs them finishing tomorrow, anything I can do to avoid gypbond? Score it and a couple of strong coats of Pva or is it not worth the risk?
