Hi, I am rendering a house built with concrete block . I normally scud blockwork firstly, then a day or so later scratch it with s/c at four to one using fine sharp and opc and additives containing plasticiser /waterproofer(contradiction I know) I will leave it to dry for five days before adding a five to one /one sand /cement/ lime coat. I will also use fibres and I am inclined following been on here to use a mesh in the scratch to reduce likelyhood of cracking. What mesh do I need to purchase as I know little of that end of things,, Any thoughts advice appreciated ..
