I want to cement render my garden wall. When it is finished I would then have to paint it to make it look good. My question is can I get cement which is already coloured so I would not have to paint it? and if so where would the best place to buy it from? :?:

My son is coming at the weekend and he is bringing his camera so I will post a photo and you might have a better idea. You sound to know a lot about it so I will be back in touch

My camera is now working. Why do you want a photo? And why do you put lime in the mix?

My camera is broken at the moment :(
