Default Cement rendering questions...

1:1:6 (lime, cement, sand, by volume)


Thanks... Should it be sharp sand, or will any building sand do? (for
optimum stickability, while wet.)

How much I will need, for 30 sq mtrs?


You can calculate the volume. Density is around 2.2.


Sorry, I'm not familiar with the density factor; can you clarify?

I calculate the volume to be 0.5 cubic mtrs.

Can anyone tell me the volume of a 25kg bag of damp sand?

Thanks..
