I usually put a 1:1 coat on first but, that said I do not do loads maybe 2 or 3 a year where I paint what I have rendered.

 

[johniosaif]

I would seal,it first, paint lasts longer,

Hi Carlos,

We would always recommend Priming the wall first if we were to spec a job using the Mapei paints. A primer like Silancolour Basecoat or Malech would be suitable for this

We always do, good painters will in my opinion, takes very little time,

 

[jamesthefirst]

What sort of primer, a designated external one with no need to gauge or just add 20% water to the weather shield first?

Designated, everywhere sells it,wickes band q etc

 

[lilharbs]

Some people I know stabilise it first,but I and other decorators I know would usually mist it with a 10-20% coat first.never failed yet.

But why?

 

[User________removed]

The last lot of chimney stacks i rendered i also painted, i sealed first with Sandtex stabilizer, then painted with Sandtex. I don't know why i sealed them its just something my old man always used to swear by. But they turned out well and the paint coverage was mega.
