Great reply and info, the only reason i dont render it flat is that i am trying to avoid so many visits, the shuttering must have failed and the wall is out bybup to 100m at its worst I have also been advised to look into ewi adhesive.. And i was always planning on using a mechanical fix once...

Its external... Reason i dont dub out is time really.. Its up to 4 inches out in places

Will research this... Thanks

Space is an issue

The wall is out of sorts.. I was thinking of using an adhesive to help level and straighten it with fixings after?

Hi guys, anyone recommend an extermal adhesive to stick render boards to painted concrete? Also does anyone use aqua boards?

That's what the rep said?? As you can tell I dont have much exp of k rend... Done a thin coat job with some one once and this jobs only a small garden wall area (6m^2) so I thought I'd have a go, but ruling off the hpx was horendous, hence a call to the rep..

So did we tbh.. But rep said u can't tc onto hpx

Needing to match up tc15, um basically the wrong base was brought and used :birras::oops::lol:

Hi guys.. Long story short there's been a f**k up and need to know how if I can put hp12 over hbx (notched and meshed) will sbr do the job? I need to do a thin coat finish but hbx has been used Thanks

I was reading about this on here, I didn't know you could flick silicone... I have some tc30 left over from another job, might see If I can get a match?

Hi guys, have been asked to match this, was told that it was thin coat k rend but it looks more like tyrolean to me.. Any thoughts?? Thanks in advance

Same

The ezy hop comes apart easy, is plastic, so lightweight. .has two hight settings. Plus u can join them together to make longer/ wider hops.. lol I promise I'm not a salesman just impressed with them

initially pricy, i'll admit, but these are worth checking out http://ezy-hop.co.uk/store/index.php

My builder is after someone to do 50 m s&c on new double extension.. labour only in Worcestershire. Anyone interested and available ASAP?

thats what my old man used to tell me.. said it the only part they touch and the polish up is just a bullshit trowel anyway :lol:

When I pull in from an edge I will then do an up and down lay on to fill it out flat... ish

Interesting mate. I think I know what u mean about feathering you edges but what about the opposite stroke to the lay on? Doesn't it have misses etc?

when i was plastering with the old man (a good few moons ago now).. we never used to flatten the first.. pretty much went straight on it with the second and as someone mentioned sort of flattened as second was going on.. feels like the gear has changed so much now compared with ten years ago o_O...

done, and shared on fb pal. all the best with this and fairplay to those that are donating money and/ or tools.

Raffle?? Used search box but no results... I'm always up for a gamble, that's why I only use 1 plank when doing above stairs :bailando:

hi guys and galls, been stalking this site for a while and picked up loads of tips etc.. i'm not new to plastering as my father was a spread and had me out pretty young... however i took a long break from it and ended up in engineering for many a year but still done a few foreigners here and...

Yeah makes the most sense. .looks crap tho till its painted..hate it! Maybe blue grit the day before is a better route

Yes, thinking about it it would kind of match the pattern of where the artex has been scrapped.. didn't put on thin tho.. strange.. I used to 3 coat with skim and let the first coat pretty much dry and don't remember having this problem so maybe it's just to do with not letting first coat pull...

Bleb bubbles?? If it's blisters u mean then no not talking about them.. looks like pitted metal.. with very small, shiny pools of water probably only microns deep.. I will try to get a picture

@Topspread16 yes, done all 3 of those things..only learnt the "special mix" recently on here. @JessThePlasterer the pitting is hard to explain really, and as you all know its hard to capture plaster accurately with a picture. i know it paints over ok as i've seen it painted.. i am wondering if...

Anyone??

Hi all, anyone got the cause and cure of pitting on overskims, its mainly when im going over artex. I don't have a pic but basically it looks a bit like acne..and can look uneven..no matter how much I trowel it it doesn't go. i know that it paints over fine but at certain light angles it makes...

i don't believe you pal.. was it a wendy house
