Many many times, what condition is the paint in, is the brickwork ok, what kind of area you talkin bout?
 
a customer is wanting the back of a property renderd as it gets all the weather and is sick of pointing it as the rain washes the motar out the joints and is needing painted every other year so wants it renderd was thinking of putting a splattrer coat on to paint before rendering any ideas cheers

Use sbr as bonding agent if the paint is well adhered to the brick
 
was thinking of using sbr in a splatter coat and adding it in the mix as this would be a good key for render
 
Prime it with a cement/sbr mix if it's that desperate, but I wouldn't guarantee it over paint, the bond will only be as good as that between the paint and the substrate
 
Try alkaline resistant mesh in the base coat and pin through while still green bridging the paint with a mechanical fix should be secure after as you are not relying on the paint to hold.
 
Use SBR 3.1 mix then scratch while tacky and push render mesh in the scratch coat if the paints flakey forget it e.m.l it
 
If there is no money in the job for eml, then tell the customer you can't guarantee bond,Might make them find the extra cash for eml and you cover ure arse too
 
As rendercsr said, but if the budgets that tight I would walk away , envisage nowt but probs with these kinds of jobs , idealy a thincoat system with the mech fixings but it's your call at the end of the day, especially if there's no coin in it
 
Sound as tho it's a shoestring budget job????nitemare the customer either wants it done right or done cheap!
 
yeah i budget is tite base and mesh would be the one. is there a base you can put on paint that does not need meshed?
 
PARINTER from parex

but only if the paint/substrate condition is good any delamination then its needing pinned mesh or eml or grinder or paint removal
 
why dont people do things properly?

if ur gonna go over paint, then u need to mesh, probably with fixings. should prob use parinter or rendaid or hpx/12.

you asked how to do it because you dont know. people then tell you. but u dont want to mesh it, and pre rends are too expensive. why ask you bellend

spot on.
Parinter will 'anchor' into the painted surface and is cheaper and more effective than rendaid or hpx.
but some people dont want to spend the money, and if your on here asking for feasable solutions but dont want the answers, whats the point.
 
Sick of painting every year but don't wanna pay our for the proper materials to render it. Tell him to save the money he was gonna spend on rendering and keep it for a few years worth of paint supplies.
 
Everyone has offered good advice but sadly none comes in budget of 50 quid, so best to give the job away not worth the hassle, feckin mare:mad:
