Been Asked to do a pebble dashing job for the first time in donky's years, i've always done them in sand and cement in the past but i was gonna use K-Rend dash receiver on this one, except no one has got any in stock and the lead time is quite long.

so....i thought i'd ask what might be a silly question for an experienced renderer but whats the difference between the dash receiver and say FT? Could FT be used as a dash receiver ? Has anyone on here ever used mono as a dash receiver?

Or should i just stop being silly and use the good old S&C.....
 
Don't think I'd risk it mate, there are other dash receivers out there better than k rend. Try Enewall or stonepack and remember when mixing to leave it sitting for ten minutes after first mix then spin again before use. Keeps it open longer.
 
yea i was airing on the side of caution anyway , why risk it when theres always sand and cement available,
 
Any K rend supplier will get you what you want on the next delivery. You can get it sooner if you pay a delivery charge. Hardly anyone stocks other than white.

Get your scratch coat flat as and then 6 mm skim.

When using a dash receiver do u scratch with the same product ? Can you spray it?

I use sand and cement as a base. There are other base coats but as to how water proof they 'who knows'.

Only scratch lightly Otherwise the receiver will sag on the scratches.

but SPS supplies K Rend dash receiver? Doing one now.
 
Renderers amuse me sometimes, back in the day I used to get guys telling that K Rend Com Rend and FT was the worst gear on the market, yet Lafarges Colourtex S was absolutely brilliant and vice versa.......

I find its great for wet dashing onto but for dry dash it skins up pretty quickly so your going like a mad man..
