Hello / BL10 Everbuild Q

[NoviceMember]

Hi Everyone.

I’ve been reading lots on here about rendering - all very good and informative.

I’ve just had my own house rendered with Parex BL10.

It looks to me like Everbuild 402 is a good option for sealing. I notice it’s made by Sika who own Parex. I assume it’s not dissimilar to Paraguard, and it’s a lot better priced.

I’ve looked up Everseal and on the product information it says it might darken a surface after the first application. I’m not sure if that’s
likely or just a possible risk which is raised out of an abundance of caution.

Is anyone with experience applying it to Parex BL10 able to say whether the render colour/brightness is affected by the water seal?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Paraguard is way better in my opinion.

Used both.
Both very repellent, everbuilds has a tendency to pool up a bit more.
What I mean is when you drop a coat over then immediately with a second the 402 is more difficult to control and get even.

Paraguard is way easier, and I've never had a problem even when properly saturating it.

Also worth a look is wykamol sealer, krend kpro and the Vimark sealer was good too.

All sika products are s**t hot in my opinion

Thanks very much for the replies. I’ve bought the Everbuild now so will give it a go and report back! I’m going to apply it with a garden sprayer and will make sure I mask the windows etc
