BULLETPROOF RENDER

[twillum]

I've just rendered my gable end with OCR following your previous videos. Absolutely brilliant gear!

Quick question for ya Blaine. If i use weber ocr as my base scratch coat will a four to one plus half bag of lime be ok for a top coat with pebble dash or would i be risking cracking afterwards.. I'm concidering using the webbing that you've used to help strengthen exterior render. Maybe this over kill but any advice from you would be greatly appreciated.. Cheers buddy..

Love the videos. Learnt a lot :) I'm looking to fill a 1m2 hole in an exterior wall left from an old fireplace that has been removed (18mm OSB installed with membrane on outside face). The house is old timber frame with existing render in the Scottish highlands and there are a couple of areas where there are minor cracks so I was looking to use a more modern polymer based render to prevent cracking between the old and new. Problem is the existing render is around 30mm thick so I was looking to screw cement board through the OSB into the timber frame then build up with OCR but I don't seem to be able to find if OCR is polymer based or not. Do you know if it is and does this sound like a good way to tackle this project?

Great video. Not sure why they would like to render over such nice brick work though?

Once again, very informative video. I actually purchased the speed skims watching oyur plastering clips, but now i only use one for flattening.

As a right handed plasterer, I've always found it easier to start from the left side and work my way to the right.

Hi bud. I’m using this OCR for the first time. I scratch coated all my extension a couple of weeks ago and put a second coat on 1 wall last weekend (neighbours side) and i had problems with air bubbles trapping behind the second coat. Any idea why this was? I’m a joiner by trade. I’ve done a few sand, cement and lime jobs in the past with no bubble

Have you applied 2 coats same day? The scratch and top coat?great work as always

[grzegorzbiernacki]

I'm about give it a go. Can you plaster over it? I've chimney breast with log burner and i was going to use it there, also one of the walls in same room looks a bit week and i was going to do exactly the same. Weber OCR with mesh. Or would you recommend just to use hardwall with mesh ?? Thanks for any advice

[RalphJones-gi]

I've got some patching to do that's only 5-6mm on the side of my house can I use ocr and mesh as just a one coat system.
I am then going to tyrolena it.

What did you use to fix in the beading at the DPC line? Just screws? Adhesive?

[aaronoxley]

How come you done a scratch coat with that stuff. Are you going over it with a different product?

[chrisyB]

Oright bud what do you use for a white background for pebble dashing or white render

[lastof]

Is this a 2 bag system as in scratch coat then a different bag for finish?

[rossfuller]

Is the bagged render àlot more expensive than sand and cement to buy.

I was led here after watching dustless blasting of rendering on brick the homeowner wanted removed 😅

[stemagee]

Are you doing a render course, like the plastering one you did

Hi Blaine, I love this channel it is superb. I do have a quick question matey. Is it possible to do a full gable end of the house in two stages or would that produce a noticeable line? Not as young as I used to be and it is a big wall to cover :). I know it will be fine for the base coat but was just wondering if by doing it in two stages for the top coat over a couple days will give me visible break point lines in my top coat. Last thing you want really is a visible line where the two have been joined together.

Great video Blaine … what size tub are you using for mixing how many bags can it take 🤔

[davidbuchanan]

I've bought SBR Bond for my scratch coat. What waterproof agent should I add with it plz..Never plastered before so I'm learning. I'm doing a scratch coat and then the top coat will be pebble dashed..
