I haven't a clue what it's called or how it's done and never been asked Before.

I'm pushing for a full re render using mono but have to give both options.

could be alpine finish

That's looks like it, the lines seem longer than the ones created in the vid. Can this be done?

In terms of doing something right and wrong yes.
Alpine is a finish though and although dated everyone has different tastes.

How many m2 out of a bag?

 

[Rigsby]

Alpine does about 5-6m2 a bag. It is a bit like mineral thin coat render.

As said the longer the strokes the longer the scratches. Easy to do in the colder months but it usually has to be ordered in.

Looks dated and collects muck.

Is it put on like thin coat and normal trowel used to drag the lines?

Put on as tight as the aggregate size allows then plastic trowel to create the scratches.
