hello everyone welcome back so this short but long garden wall im
going to be showing you how i do cement render and this will be my scratch coat witch is
the under coat for your top coat
right so just going to scratch the wall
here 1st coat sand and cement then tomorrow rub it all up
i am starting at the bottom and working my way up to the top
so when you coat it keep
it as neat as possible
(bird's singing in background )
when you get an area done scratch it get it marked key for the next coat
continue on as such
obviously before you start to coat you will clean down the wall 1st taking of all the lumps
all the preparation wet down the wall as well witch i have all ready done I have
already hosed it all down , i dont want to soak down there as much as the soil
on the other side is keeping it wet anyway
(sound of cement being applied birds singing)
again coat it as neat as you can... less lines the better ( tool marks)
pick any hard stones out as you go
(tools scratching the cement rendering on the concrete wall )
keep it flat
keep tools clean
any render sticking out you can always go over it again
neat you scratch it means less scraping and preparation you will have to do next time
