Non scraped krend

[bigali]

Hello ,has anyone used.thanks krend and just rubbed it with the float and left it finished with float not scraped .how would it compare to sand +cement and painted

 

[theclemo]

Why would u want to do that. If you just float krend u will get different coloured shades in it

 

[bigali]

The people who own the house like the krend material but do not like the scraped look .I takit you have seen walls not scraped

 

[theclemo]

I have. I have to drive past it today I'll take a picture. If the client wants it give it to them. But krend won't stand by it.

It's a neighbours house on side of main road want to keep them right but want to keep me even more right

If it was me I wouldn't float it then.

If you want to float finish a coloured render then use parex Monorex gf

 

[bigali]

They are kept fully up to date I'll not get caught out with the material at least.

I've floated and sponged parex as the customer didn't want a scraped finish.
The colour will vary as it says on the data sheet
I used G00 so it didn't look to back
Sand & cement with 4 coats of paint is the best option unless it needs to be breathable

Have floated and sponged Krend reveals and bands, before doing walls with standard scraped finnish, looks really well as a shade or two darker. Saw the building today looks alright after ten years though it was the dark grey which I reckon ages better than Buttermilk.

I do same paddy, but ffs don't let even a drop of rain on them as it will mark it in a lighter colour, only happened me once, on my own house so it was grand!

The last four specs we got off architects to price drawings said floated k rend.

We float up dash receiver on the plinths and reveals and it looks good

 

[Rigsby]

I have rendered with K Rend dash receiver ok. But I doubt it would work with mono.

Specs we got through for local hospital was k rend ft to be finished with float and sponge. I've seen it done on a block of flats not far from me and looks horrendous.

Krend gp motar will float up ok but its Gona need painting

Any coloured render shouldn't be a float finish
It will f**k the colour

We have napped krend on numerous houses going back 10/11 years. Quoins in dark colour and elevations mostly in buttermilk.Pass them every now and again and they look 100%. Lovely stuff to napp actually.

what's the script with it pal just rub it up then sponge or different

 

[BigK]

Just rub it up, sponge and napp, it's a piece of piss. Easier than s&c.
It's also to blame why mono hasn't took off in Ireland as you get a 'maintenance free' finish at half the cost of mono.

It's like a stipple type finish mucky, predominantly done in Ireland. Couldn't do it with the sand in England, needs to be real coarse.

Big k havnt done any k rend so complete novice like but do you scrape it Down wen its gone the day after then tiger float it after? Ive seen it done that way we helped on a Job but we put on and he scrapped back was years ago..or is it just scraped and not touched with the float?

 

[john og]

kitchy I'm from irl as well, ,it's sand lime and cement render ,you float it up and bring up the fat of the lime with water and nap it with the float or napping sponge similar to artexing
