4:1 and if you want fine sand get B&Q or Wickes kild dried sand (block paving sand).

@malc use's the same mix he uses for the top coat

 

[malc]

you would never be able to match the colour,
when we top coat the render,we spray the same mix only wetter on the same day. just spray very fine, the backing and the spray dries the same colour so no need for infiling, and is ready to receive decoration.

I have done it a couple of times when customer is being a tight arse or only a small bit to do. same mix as top coat plus a little frost proofer in it.
