Render or hardwall

[skinnyboy7]

Hello boys,

Just a quick question if you don't mind.

I've got a job plastering the inside of a porch and the guy doesn't want dot and dabbed boards. So i'm in 2 minds on how to go about the first coat over the blockwork.
Do I use render as you guys showed me on the City and Guilds or hardwall which i've not used before.

I've only been skimming since I passed and could do with knowing the do's and dont's with using hardwall.

Thanks

Brian says not to use hardwall, use sand and cement gauged at 4-1 with plastersizer, thickness 9-11mm, render the inside of the porch, rule off, devil float, clean angles, leave for at least 2 days then go back and skim.

Cheers Brian your a legend,

I might be back in May to do the polished plastering course so watch out. We should have won the Champions League by then but I won't go on too much about it. Hope all is well, say hello to Spence for me.

p.s. Hope you do the yids at the weekend.

Just to add something i learnt the hardway when i did my first rendering job, soak the walls as much as possible with water to kill the suction, otherwise it comes off like sand

Cheers
