Hi everyone.. i have taken on a job that has 3 different substrates to render..
1. Concrete block
2. Cement carrier board
3. Brick.
Not to up on K rend.. and not had any response from technical guys over the phone.
All the info i have gathered is to use HP12 and mesh it and then TC15 colour over the top a day or two later? I am guessing i need to prime all the different substrates in same primer? And HP12 all over… then tc the final colour and plastic scrape to finish??..also do people only use K rend primers or do they have their own? (Sbr) thanks for any help

Hp12 will stick like s**t to a blanket on all them substrates . Trust me I've done it many times and it's fine to this day . Most lads will say hpx or hp14 . Personally I couldn't give a b*ll***s if it's hp SAUCE . BUT GOOD LUCK EITHER WAY

That's OK that hp12 is a great product and if you can traditionally render it'll be problem for you

I agree I love hp12.

Quality all rounder

I like the speed it sets, adhesion, availability, the look of the finish - and colour. (And the fact you can usually bring it back a bit.)


Bad bits, thickness limitations, and occasional slump.

I sometimes wodge some fibres in the water first - that makes for an outstanding mix.

Listen here SON, I qualified as a plasterer at a time when you were still swimming around in some tramps ball bag.
For anyone to carry out a polymer system without training is stupid. It is nothing like a basic sand cement or lime render.

Bit uncalled for but obviously you are older than me and that gives you the right to talk down to every person that YOU think are not as good as you!! I dont care…but that is too personal a put down for me calling you ‘son’… i dont care how old you are.. you dont know me you dont know what i have done or been through in my 64 years! And tbh i dont give a s**t… manners dont cost a thing.. as we both know… i came on this site to gain information and hopefully learn from ‘older’ more wise people.. all i have had is put downs… you being one of them.. no need for it.. they say the younguns need to learn/earn respect! Other way round. To all the people who have advised/helped me.. thankyou.. to you Malc’ i hope have a happy end to a bitter life. Peace and love.. ex forces lol

I was only trying to explain to you that you need some training in thin coat render systems before you can hope to turn out a decent job.
It is not something that you pickup over a weekend like a dose of the clap!
You tell me that you were in the armed forces. Was it the same reg. as my good friend TINY TOM, The Royal Berks?
