Wet dash bleaching

Hi All,

Looking for some advice on a wet dash render which I've just had applied to my house. It is K Rend and Fintry Stone in colour which is a oatmeal colour. The problem is a section of the front of the house has some lighter staining where rain has hit the wall prior to it fully drying. This is very obvious and is spoiling the look of the render. My contractor isn't hopeful of getting it to match the colour without significant intervention and I was hoping someone on here may have an answer?

Hope you can give me some suggestions.

Thanks
David
 
Rain wasn't forecast but unfortunately came a few hours after the wall was done, the joys of living on the Scottish coast!
Thanks for the suggestion- Where can I get the paint from?

Thanks
David
 
As Fatarm says it could be limebloom which looks like colour bleaching.

In the said area did it have the rain water hitting that particular spot?

If not then it could be limebloom.

K Rend may have an equalising solution if you need to paint if.

Was just thinking of tagging you sir..

The areas affected are where rain water was dripping directly onto.

Is the equalising solution a type of paint product?

Thanks for your advice so far guys.
 
Jub revitacolor from Direct Building Supplies in Bradford.

Delivered next day.

Was £108 plus delivery 6 years ago. Water it down at least 10% more if you can to avoid it looking like a paint. I would first coat watered down 20%.

60m2 per 16ltr bucket.

Get a ral colour code off K Rend.
