rendering/beads

[nickelarse]

mate of mine asked earlier. hes gotta render a new house. they want a feature running around the house. he said only way he could think of doing it is sticking 2 20mm stop beads to make them about 25-30 mm pround, then scratch and float so he gets a border about 20mm pround of the render. is this the only way of doing it? can u get specialist beads or something for this?

there is a specialist bead you can get i know les was saying about it (think his mate designed it) but to be honest doing it with stop beads is probably the best way and the neatest way
