irregular cracks in exterior render

Post by orlando » Sun May 04, 2008 9:32 am

I have a few irregular cracks in my exterior render .I have chased one of them out to a gap of about half inch,filled with exterior filling and sealed and painted with masonory paint,but it keeps washing out.
What can I do??

I think you'd be better with a rendering mix of sand and cement. As you wil paint it is doesn't matter that it will probably be a different colour.

Cheers
