I'm doing a rendering job at the moment, just a gable. I've scratched it on with s/c and meshed it due to a few cracks in the brickwork, was planning on topping it out as soon as the weather changes but the customer keeps banging on about a house down the road which has been finished in krend or another brand. So they're asking me if I could finish the wall in that instead of s/c. :RpS_mad: What I want to know is...
1. Can I go straight over the s/c scratch coat with a one coat monorex (parex)
2. Is it easy to apply and mix
3. Could it be done by 1 plasterer and 1 labourer in 1 hit or would I have to split the gable into 2/3 sections.
4. Would the cost be astronomical compared to s/c.
5. Should I just use sand and cement and tell them no?
Thanks for the info as I've never used anything but s/c externally.
