forming corners.

[frankk]

Externally how best to form corners without using corner beads?
It is to be pebble dashed. and how do you form a neat corner at window return where pebbles meet smooth return.
thanks. franco

Fix or prop a straight edge up the angle at the depth you want your finish/reciever then when you go round the corner prop it flush with the dash you have just done or cut the edge at 45' if your doing the next panel another day if that makes sense.

If you are new to dashing form your corners with a stick on the scatch coat. Use a stick (2x1 pse ) to give a straight edge on the corner and put on your reveal on, dash. Leave to set then do the face.

With experience you would do the reveal and face together.

Same idea apply if making the reveals smooth?
The customer wants smooth reveals?
They want it to match the house,its a brown colour.
difficult to match.
thanks Rigsby@

Yes same procedure.

Not done loads of dashing,but feel confident enough to tackle smaller jobs
with some advice from here and you tube vids.

He has to much stones on his dasher. No need for that amount.

 

[BigK]

Correct Clemo!
And why the fook didn't they spread one face to the deck & dash it down?
Having said that I know them, from my neck of woods, #sticktodampcourses

How many of you use beads on render/dashing jobs, how many do the stick method? Does it depend on the job cost.
