You could always use a hopper gun and compressor. You might be able to hire a compressor from a local hire shop. You'd have to do it all with that though because the finish would look different than using a plastic trowel.

You'd have to buy a hopper gun. You can get them on eBay. Look into if you can hire a compressor and hoses first. I've never done it but it's an idea that would keep the cost right down. Worth looking into.

This forum has made me realise how much shiit I talk when full of liquor !!

On my own house I would not have render I prefer brick or stone.

But if I had to it would be a manufactured render base coat thick or thin finished in either a nano finish, marble in resin or rendabrick. Which ever looked best.

I do have an out house pebbledashed in 1990 and faultless apart from air pollution. The once white cement is now grey.

What year, mate? The new model ha one size ,but 3 different , power wise engines. If I can remember right is the one from 11 plate-109,136 and 163 ps. In generally they pull better than sprinter

You can guarantee the VW engine will outlast the merc. Mate owns a very busy garage and he's had merc engines die around 120,000 miles. Maybe that's why there's so many for sale just under that mileage.
 
VW is the star in my opinion! The best van they ever build was the LT2.8 L. Full mechanic and bulletproof engine, low cost and the most reliable van. They stopped producing them in 2006, when introduced the crafter. He models before 2011 have some issues , but nothing big compared to he rest of the market . From 2011 onwards no problems whatsoever . The most rust resisting van nowadays , especially if not white.

Don't fancy the 109's. Not many 136's about though. 99.9% are white too. I want a change from white. Do you make use of all that head height with the hi roof?

Yeah gonna rack it out for beads straight edges and such.
 
My last house was modern with crisp white render everywhere, repainted every 3years it always looked brand new out the box. Now in a Victorian brick built house, sash windows, stone cills etc, doesn't have the same visual impact but not having to worry about maintenance makes up for that.
