Hpx base finishing

[phiz]

I've got approximately 300m2 of k rend hpx to use as a base/ float coat for a thin coat job (architects spec). I've used it as a base/ scratch coat but never floated/finished it. Any suggestions/ methods???? I'd rather first coat + mesh and top the next day to get uniform suction. Any advice?? Thanks.

Dont always go with what the architect says without checking. They always reference specs wrong. Hpx is a mare to finish and is best used as a prep. They have a new product for insulation called hp14 not to be confused with hp12.
Ring krend to confirm then go back to architect

Can u coat hpx with silicon e grade same day? do krend have a special light weight mono for insulation?

Weber do one but you need to go the course to be able to buy it or so they told me. SPS Envirowall reckon theirs can go on insulation with a suitable base coat.
