Hi Guys, may be repaeating a thread but I've just joined !
Has anyone plastered over Bradstone ( not real stone )
I´ve been aproached to do so but if you know Bradstone it has seriously convex surfaces and as a cosequence deep recesses to dub out and also no suction as it is basically concrete.

My feeling is it´s a no no ! Even with a modified SBR Scat coat ( Never PVA exteranlly or in damp areas lads as it re-emulsifys ) I have a feeling that it may not be the best idea as the bradstone is a 100mm block skin with a cavity against timber frame so could be prone to small amounts of movement which may encourage hairline cracks ?
Ive considerd hair in the mix and even promesh within a caot .

Just wondering ,Is there a type of Rigid render board that could be mechanically fixed to the face then K rend or pro rend or other Polymer finish

The client doesnt want insulation board as its already insulated interaly and doesnt want te extra thicness that would create.

Any thoughts appreciated

Gotta get up and skim over some more artex ceilings , who ever came up with that stuff needs needs something , and its not a medal ;-)

Cheers Tim
