That is it bro

[@impressive_builders]

@@drummerboy_chubby flooat it after rough casting to keep down the coarseness

[@drummerboy_chubby]

@@impressive_builders ok understand

[@user-er3ff4zf2g]

Just saying...how do you know the thickness for rough casting and rendering without measurements. Correct me if im wrong please...just trying to learn

[@impressive_builders]

In school it was taught rendering should be at least ⅛ thick for rough casting that's another story because it depends on the wall or area how straight and plumb it is

[@impressive_builders]

Can be ½inch or more as I said it depends on the plumb Ness and how straight the area is

[@technide6455]

Hey whats your mix ratio for flashing mortar.

[@impressive_builders]

Sand 2 to 1 if using marl 3 to 1 or 2½ to 1 barrow the sand can vary also if its dirty u can use 1½ or 1¼ bag of cement to 2 barrow

[@technide6455]

@@impressive_builders so the general ratio is: 1 part Cement : 2 part Sand 1 Cement 2: Sand Irregardless of what measuring apparatus in use whether bucket, bag or barrow

[@impressive_builders]

@technide6455 yeah man u have to keep in mind the measurement for the sand how many bucks makes up a barrow or how much in the bags to add up to a barrow of sand so you get the correct proportion

[@technide6455]
