Render mesh in finish

[craigEEE]

Has anyone used this, got a few walls in a spare room at home that ideally I don't want to knock off but they have loads of tiny hairline cracks, the plaster itself is pretty solid but as I said just has hairline cracks.

I think it would work well.... but bed it into bonding first...

Ive used it loads Craig scratch your first coat on quite thick then have all your mesh cut ready bed it in but don't over lap trowel it in tight then leave about 15mins then another coat over the top mate but make sure you cover it well stop the mesh grinning through

If the walls are that screwed I would often coat them up with a tight coat of binding first....
