How is Rendering Done?
Cement, sand and lime are the main ingredients in render. By adding lime the render becomes a creamier texture and more elastic making it more workable and less prone to cracking after it dries. The sand used in rendering needs to be fine and free of impurities. Other ingredients used in rendering mixes include pigments, polymers, polozanic material, bonding agents and additives to slow or speed the drying or curing process.
Render is applied in thin, smooth coats using a trowel or a spray system. Finish coats may be finished with a trowel, a brush, a hessian bag or a sponge, depending on the desired surface texture.
Modern, hi-tech acrylic pre-mixed rendering products have good waterproofing properties and can be applied to surfaces normal render cannot adhere to. Some renders can be applied with special spray equipment. Acrylic renders can set within 24 hours, while traditional renders take up to 28 days to fully cure.
