Advice on render & block type

[Pnell50]

Hi, first time post. Before i start i'm not a plasterer.

i'm having an extension built in the coming weeks, the walls are due to be constructed out of Plasmor fibolites, my intention is to have the walls scratch render in weber silver pearl. Will this render take to the type of block i have chosen.

i have had conflicting advice from a couple of different guys that have came out to quote. I have also emailed weber for their input but yet to get a reply.

Can you guys offer me anything, your help would be appreciated

Regards

Paul

they are lightweight blocks , they include recycled bits of all sorts in them. as such your going to have to put a primer on first and fully mesh
before using mono on them, but it can be done no issues.

The blocks arent bought yet, i know a lot of it is personel preference, but is there a block widely avaiable that is easier to work with?

Ive notice glass particals in heavyweight blocks of late, and with that loads of suction wtf is that all about :huh: never ever got suction off heavy weights
