she's hard we got this finish or about this big gimbal down and I'm going to go through
every step of the way over a few videos all about the Scott coat the foundations of
we're going to do everything else and holds the whole job to go the second video of this
rendering series is going to be all about the second coat the scratch code third video top
coat of sound cement render will be all about playing the render ruling
it off and getting it straight ready to be robbed up and finished last but not least
on this series is going to be about a plan a frozen the acrylic weather just as shown here
next subscribe back plastering
so it would be absolutely crazy for me to tell you that this is the most important
stage of this series but it is important for the stage that comes after just like every coat so
far that just watched guys every video you've watched the first stage is probably the most
important the squad code probably was the most important but then the scratch coat is still the
next most important coat before you start your float coat which we're doing here the top coat
and you know so it would just be crazy to say that this is the most important coat
but it is the most important code for the acrylic around there that will follow this
so have this all all rooted up here and beat it these wee Windows here even the other neighbor's
ones just sort of lie back a hell of a lot but yeah so we'll get down to the actual random so
most important thing is then guys once you get your mix and this mix here is a four to one
um as I've showed in previous videos again we'll try and get them in the description but yeah we're
planned for the one top coat here and we've got mortar mix and waterproof in it and the motor mix
is also known as plasticizer guys it's slightly retards the the render so that it doesn't set
so it does slow it down a bit and it also makes it a lot nicer to work with and it's not there
it's a bit more fluffy and pliable but yeah just getting it all on and you want to get on areas
here obviously this is a big big wall just got three stages in it and then obviously grounds
this was probably really got sort of four lifts in total if you count the ground and you want
to apply certain areas and then get it straight and then you might want to apply the next oh yeah
get that straight and then you'll probably have to start rubbing up again this is probably not really
these kind of jobs probably on a one month or we probably need a team or at least a good mate with
you to help you render as you know if it starts to dry on you life's going to get very tough and
very hard and plaster is hard enough so let's not make it any harder but yeah if you're only doing
a small area like these and you know I'm sure you could mind mixing it and I plan on all yourself no
bother and that would be great but on this stage I'm showing you it's all about I'm gonna get it
all coated and then we'll get it straight and also use how I finish it that leave it ready for the
acrylic top coat also known as the coat render um again this is important because the render goes on
so thin on the top the acrylic goes on so thin that everything you want everything to be nice
and flat and straight and you don't want too many depths or holes or anything other ways it'll all
show up on the color code on the top and you're going to want to avoid that as much as possible
uh just to be a bit of a rough bit of scratching down there and you can see
how strong that scratch code is so guys really digging him as a child the town knocked down a
bit there which is okay if it's if it's too heavy guys you can not back that bit that's no problem
again will likely let these rules stay on when it's all robbed go hard and then the
next day strip them off and put their wheels on the following day or later on if the the render
picks up picks up and gets nice and firm and then we can slice it and return the rules and get the
acrylic or so I get get the Reveals All plastered satin cement smooth that way but it's quite a lot
of hard work guys Brandon and probably one of the hardest things at ceilings possibly and some walls
big walls hard to plaster as well but once you get it all on it's the straightening time and
again this is quite important you want to get it as straight as possible I'm actually struggling on
this this way area because it's it's it's such a funny bit of a shape of soffits and the roof
either side here as well that I'm heading off and stuff so this smaller roommate have been a wee bit
better but basically when you are straightening you kind of want to straighten it both ways you
want to straighten it up and down and left the right and again I've shoot this on previous
videos I might take it down in the description that really break down hard straighten the wall
before you even rub it up and I think it's broken down in the e2b segment just off the top coat and
yeah just trying to get this straight as possible guys and if there is any depths now is the time to
fill it all out Now's the Time to get it all straight because when you come to rub it and
it's starting to set off on you and there's no you found it's a bit of a dip then you're gonna
have to fill that out and straighten it and what what that will cause will be a big wet patch and
you'll end up partner finish the wall around dad and had this big soggy wet patch but today and
they'll maybe have to come up again or come across just depends on the wall you're doing if you're
doing a wall like this you'll have to come back up the lifts and finish one area and that's the kind
of things that end up forgotten that's the kind of blemishes that end up you know on walls that
when you're not taking it all with you that's the kind of thing that does happen so you do
want to try and get everything nice and straight now so it's all set and as one nice and even and
that's coming up now guys um and somebody did say to me about pulling down the wall one time as well
you can you know be smaller as they go it's very hard to have a like a two foot straight edge you
know but you can use your trowel guys believe it or not they're actually straight in smaller areas
that are you know just too little child lengths you can use your child to pull it down and you
know I'm working off this rule along the head so it's keeping everything to that margin which is
perfect and same as satin beats and the likes of small is like this you know you can almost
just use the float to get there pull it up with the trowel so it's all nice and even within
the two beads and rub it up and sponge it just showing this for a bit of a quick demonstration
again these be bits here to hand the dry a bit quicker up with the sunset more and the winds
just fly across speaking about your hand this way area along the top you'll see I've sort of
somewhat rubbed it a wee bit and that's the other type areas guys that that really really dry quick
that I find is you know up under that that first foot of underneath the roof there it's never ever
getting hit by rain or moisture anywhere near as much as the rest of the wall and the reason
is because the roof over hangs so it's just been sitting there constantly dry not get any moisture
from the elements and then also airflow's still getting up there stuff as well so that's most
times that's going to be a very dry area also funny enough underneath the windowsills is all
10 to find underneath window sills you know that for sort of half a foot down is very dry
um more so when you're doing dried ice that's that's an area you want to protect you want
to get that wet and you want to get the stones maybe head on to them areas quicker because you
know and I'm talking about dry Dash here but I'm just giving an example of hard dry some areas of
walls can be and even when rubbing up they meet we always catch out you know I personally don't
like flicking water onto a wall and I think sometimes without cement it can give a bit
of a white sort of steam now on a wall like this it's not nowhere near as bad because the reason is
this is going to be color-coded after this stage so after I get it all rubbed up here it's going to
all be primed with acrylic and it's going to get a big lovely coat of of acrylic around there and
finished really nice one of the nicest finishes I think on I would say Plastering is acrylic round
there and it just so happens to be one of one of the deers as well same as the Monaco is quite dear
um I did like melaku spot when you click him out just at the end of the the like it
that wee bit more I think it's the just got all round it's just not that much better but back to
the render and you can see here I'm just trying to close in there's a couple of retaining gaps
and I just kind of close them in so that when I come the acrylic no dirt can be dragged down
you know and there's no holes there's no dark areas all this soffit here you see is going to be
replaced with fresh new stuff it logo and square so technically don't need to go up as tight but
just being that wee bit of a perfectionist I do want to have a nice flat Street wall for the guys
doing their acrylic render and but yes guys now is the time to remind us to Max grab the channel hit
the Subscribe button and I'm sure you're enjoying the video so far if you've got to this stage so
appreciate that and yeah there will always be more more tutorials to come but still on this one you
can see the sun actually bouncing off this guys so again like I was saying to use on the previous
video that these balls were quite hot at the top more so on the top two lifts again that's to do is
moisture drops moisture wants to fall water wants to defend its level on the ground it wants to fall
down so you do tend to find hair up the wall you go where the dryer it is again we're starting her
um and when it does come to these random jobs the worst Parts B is the bottom especially in
the winter here you know it's they call them soggy bottoms and that's because all the moisture lies
at the bottom of the wall and it sort of absorbs into the bottom of the wall from the ground and
when it rains it's the last place to try so when you're doing these walls guys you kind of you want
to smash them all as quick as possible get them straight as quick as possible leave them open
see the way it's all sort of rough looking there before I hit it with the float that's that's what
you call leave it open and the longer you can leave it like that the better for Dram
um again it probably would have been better just closing it all in but for this purpose of
this video it's much easier if you use to see it before it's rubbed in and get a feel of an
idea of of what's actually going on and again I like to work from the left to the right here and
this this B float here you can actually sort of go on that bee bit earlier when the stuff is is
wet but I find it it's it's quite dry here but you know it's it is what it is guys you can wear it
like I say when it's not going to be a big issue because there's a color code to be applied anyway
so you know if there's a bit of stealing it won't matter because it's all going to be primed and the
primer is like a paint so it'll all look white and then the color code itself will you know no
colors will bleach through anything with this acrylic so if you did want to wipe down areas
if you're doing the acrylic coat that's fine but if you're watching this video for the purpose of
hard to actually finish a wall starting cement you might not want to flick water on it um and
just walking down here we'll probably sort of an expansion stop Beat here and we're just running it
down down the joint between the neighbors and the house we're working on here at the minute and you
know just showing this here once you've floated up you can use a sponge float to rob the wall and
finish it and you can use a car float as well but I do like these ones as they can help sort of move
move gear in the areas that need you know turn it up a little bit further but it is worth taking the
time guys you probably think it's taking a long time on this this wall but it is worth taking
the time to get things right now because like I said when you come today they're like the stuff's
very expensive don't want to be wasting it and you can't build out people seem to think you can put
on too cool to the stuff and all you can't really it's one coat it's thin coat and again it's it's
sort of like a rubber base stuff so if you put it on too thick what what will happen is it won't set
and I don't know about these but in the winter here it rains a lot so something isn't gonna set
that's that's a bad thing it's gonna you know it's gonna be a mess it's gonna it's gonna make
a mess of the wall and the other thing is it can't be finished because it can turn but I'll
cover all the acrylic stuff on the next video guys so make sure you don't miss out on that make sure
you just keep the notification Bell on and stuff so you're not gonna miss out so back to the the
old float here that that diamond won't still need to be more breaking in attempts but um yeah quite
dry out there in the top so important to get it all all rubbed sooner rather than later so like
I said if four lifts on this we've got the top on and the one under me is I think it's Almond
Street as well so you don't want to you know you want to start facing things before you get too
far and again if it is dial I guess it's going to take a wee bit more muscle guys just just to press
that in and get it all nice and rubbed smooth and flat and you can see I was finishing there
as I went just filling in holes on the big cable here now and this is whatever sort of town you can
see our wet so the the next the next left piece from the bottom it's quite quite a difference
the top dry is a lot quicker than you know lower down sort of lifts um but yeah the other sort of
thing a bit of a Hot Topic is what way do you rub your balls and you know you can rub them the way
[Music] I basically just didn't eat it on the wall but you can see that I don't put that as
wet I guess I don't put big pressure on here um I'm still filming the holes but I'm not putting in
my pressure and making big wavy marks everywhere it's just nice and late guys just [Music] so again
doesn't really matter to me personally I don't find it makes a massive difference on the finish
that come with the job what we actually rub it as long as you you know you're not rubbing
weaves into or holes into it as some people like the chord and and you're really just finishing
what you've streamed because it's really the straightening is the important part of it
um so plenty to think about there if you are new to tackle this yourself or again you're
just sort of learning yourself as well and you're picking up the random to me Randon is it's it's
one of the the more complex sort of things the plaster and you know you'll always pick up your
skin and maybe you're a bit of floating inside and again oh you're floating inside can be a wee bit
rougher because you're going to skim over it um where I would love to say that about this acrylic
foundation on the top of this but that that isn't the case guys the acrylic will follow the shape
of the wall so say I left a line in this wall David how did they unscrape that flat otherwise
if I did acrylic over it will follow that or if I left a couple of these be holes in by accident
again they're acrylic will will follow that you know it'll follow the dips and it'll follow the
bumps so you don't you don't want to have that guys um and you want to have it all rubbed up as
smooth as possible treat it like you're finishing it and treat it like you're finished and you're
walking away and that's that's the job done when you're fluted and you have sponsored all smooth
very very important guys again it'll go right Byers on future jobs not just acrylic jobs but
you know if these people decided you know we can't afford the acrylic at this stage that probably
won't happen because I have it all bought but in particular just just for example if you were
doing a job and then the people thought you know would you want to do the next stage you can stop
at this stage this is this is still good enough this can be painted or it can be left it's still a
waterproof blanket around the outside or a water resistant blanket a radio Xavier house [Music]
