There no way of troweling it up as such just a case of getting the sub straight bang on flat then hopefully it won't suck in to any hollows..

Treat it like you would S&C without plastic floating or sponge

heres there website, it has the instructions for the render plus the coverage

Oh right, maybe it's changed then bud the stuff I used you couldn't trowel it up at all could only flatten it in..

They recommend 25mm for the base coat ,which only covers 0.5 metres so it gets expensive. But you can put a scratch coat on with normal s&c at 3.5 to 1 at 10-12mm followed by the vitcas at 10mm.
