So, I may have screwed up my render.
EWI-220 base coat over EPS with mesh embedded. Applied 5-7pm when it had cooled to just below 25C.
Nightmare to apply, got grabby and pulled about the wall before I have got it flat, so the finish is hideous.
It refused to firm up by 10pm to float it, managed to wet n' rub 5:50 the next morning. But south facing wall and I'm guessing it dried out too fast and now it's showing cracks. That said, it feels solid to a knocking so I don't think it's coming off.


I've just ordered £500 worth of primer and silicone render. And am hoping I can get some feedback before I risk trying to polish a turd.
