I've just blocked up my garage door and plan to render tomorrow. It's only
a small panel, 2.2 x 2.1m with a 1.0 x 1.2m window and I'm going to use a
sand / cement mix with plasticiser.

I haven't rendered before and would welcome any advice or tips

Thanks


I'd PVA it first.

You can buy packs of fibre to mix in with the mortar which helps prevent
cracking.
