Help Render sand&cement basics

[Damian plasterer]

I one of the very lucky ones, good pension, semi-retired, can pick choose my work, most of the work I take now is internal work.
Nothing wrong with the work, in fact bellcast beads must of been floated in good, for me to think it was a stop bead. Done my share of plastering from, hacking off with hammer and bolster to running moulds in-situ.
Next external work I'll post some photo's, never used to take photo's of work, most jobs glad to see the back of them.
You must be able to come up with something better than big spuds, have a think and try to come back with something sarcastic and funny.

Wow in situ running moulds its part of the trade ffs . I aint some weeks course gunslinger pal

You might be favourite using a pre bagged render rarther then s/c . Tben you don't have to worry about getting your ratios right

can I just ask though how long do I need to wait to rub up the sand cement render with a float to get a decent finish.

Depends on temps, sulinght and suction. Best thing to do is to wait till its ready
