Rendering

[thomo27]

Hi

I am wanting to render the external wall at the back of my house ( red housebrick )

I have the bags of render. Can the render go directly onto the wall in 1 or 2 coats ? Do I need any bonding for the render to knit too ?

Kind Regards

Stephen

The Render is by Weber.

What do you mean by rake out the beds joints to get a good key ?

Im aware you do one coat and then scratch it and then apply a second coat ..

Cheers
