Re-Rendering Outside Wall

[JHWEBW]

Hiya, I'm going to rerender an outside wall where the pebbledash has all fallen off. The initial scratch coat is still intact.

I'm going to use PVA before I start, I've got the mortar and 6mm pebbles and will apply using plastic float. Does anyone know how I can achieve a stippled/grainy effect of the original rendering without making it smooth?

Thanks,

Post a pic and will help us tell you what your existing finish is.

Do not use pva.

Or a plastic float.
