Silicone tc 15 is perfect via the right base IMO.
I have seen the ft mono speced onto board via hpx but I wouldn't go there.

Hi gd
I am Richard Lord the Knauf Aquapanel Exterior Specialist in the UK - feel free to contact me on 07918766577 if needed, or drop me a mail to rlord@knauf.co.uk
As you have posted in later threads, K Rend is an approved render onto Knauf Aquapanel Exterior, and they do now specify their thin coat system as a preference.

For the record, Knauf Aquapanel Exterior has formal approval statements approving the renders from the following companies for use onto Knauf Aquapanel Exterior:
K Rend
Parex
Weber
Alumasc
Permarock
Knauf Marmorit
Wetherby Building Systems
Baumit / Lime Technology
Mapei

We would advise that if you are looking for a warranteed system, you get a formal project specific specification from Knauf and the render system supplier for the project - and then work to it.
Feel free to contact me for further assistance, if required

So can you use monoacouche on it?

You need to put a system basecoat and mesh on first, and then the mono that the system supplier specifies - but yes with some of them... (K Rend, Parex and Monocouche Render Systems all have tested mono systems, Baumit have a lime based finish, and Pics Wallcrete finishes).
Be aware that timber frames will move, so mono systems do have a higher chance of cracking on boards in these types of applications.
You are better using a thin coat finish really

There is a range of Knauf Aquapanel Screws, some specifically for timber, some for galv steel, some for Aluminium.... Knauf have them all in stock for delivery to the stockists (some stockists do stock timber and galv screws).
If I can guess who you are refering to.... they have the fixings for timber in stock...
Give me shout Monday marra, will sort for you!
