Best way to build up s/c render thickness?

Charlie Gordon · 31 Jan 2021

Hi I’m patch rendering a bathroom wall with sand and cement render to level with existing render.

I’ve put on the first scratch coat of around 15mm at 4:1 but there is still around 15-20mm to level it. Is the best course of action to build this up in the second coat (5:1)?

Or should I split this up into another couple of coats? Is 3 coats total ok?

Thanks!
