Never done EWI, plenty of s+c and mono, am I right in thinking it's topped using silicone thin coat ?

Topped with an ewi render like mapei ar1 or another brands version of that and then yeah silicone top coat, thin coat systems just not general bagged render like hp12

If it’s a knock off brick would want prepping with a grit product of some kind, then mesh base prime and thin coat

If on brick and block then just use normal bagged ocr like hp12, much nicer to work with than an ewi product.

It can be but you can also use Webertherm M1 which is a mono on at 13mm. You can dash it as well

Might have to look into that, don't fancy 300sm of tc by hand. What base would you use ?

The back will be half brick (once old render has been hacked off ) half block. The front is just painted brick.

Thincoat is best for ewi end of, 300 square metres is not 1 to practice on let someone else do it mate.

I have someone that can jump on with me to show us, will just do smallest area first, but would rather do in mono if it's possible.

No base straight on mate
