Hello,

I'm a bit confused...

Is render a mix of sand and cement used for inside masonary or outside? I can use it as an undercoat to tiles and plaster? Its hard for the diyer?? Does it come in a bag ready mixed? I ask the nice man at wickes for a bag of Render?

Is bonding a type of plaster? used for undercoats? My friend used it for bigger chuncks out of his wall and so I get the impression its good for filling big nasty missing pieces of bricks etc. Can I use that on masonary, as an undercoat?

Do either require a PVA solution to be down first when putting on masonary?

Cheers
