    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.

    K Rendering Advice fellas?

    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.

    Advice please k-rend

    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.

    K Rend

    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.
