skye marble white dry dash chips

[drewjoe]

Hi, About to build a new house with white skye marble drydash harling and grey fyfestone basecourse and quoins. I've seen the render look a bit discoloured after a few years presume its the white cement used underneath the chips. Could that be avoided by using a lightly coloured cement instead? I know our last house was cream coloured cement with cream chips and it still looks fine. Thoughts please.

Seal it

Use K Rend Silicone Dash Receiver. Water repellant and doesn't absorb dirt like ordinary Portland cement does.

I think all render systems discolour after a few years. If you want to tone the cement down a bit use building sand instead of silver sand
