Hi. First time on here so hello all.
I'm rendering a house, stucco finish, normally I use timbers to set up the corners and drips but ive decided to use render beads this time. Attached them with Pinkgrip which was great to use and then put the beads on before scratching. All scratched up but I've noticed there will be little to no drip once the top coat is done . I've used 15mm beads. Is this acceptable in your opinion or should I just pull off the beads and sit them on the scratch?

Are you in the USA? I'm assuming so using the term stucco. I've no idea what your materials and specs are over there, but the drip is the underside of the drip bead. To bell out at the bottom of the wall you would need either a deeper drip bead or as they're known here when made of steel, a bellcast bead.
