Wallcoat and similar holes
Hi I had this house coated with this wonderful stuff some years ago, but
have recently removed a fitting from the wall and need to really block up where its bracket was. When it was done originally, it had some kind of binder put on the render first. I still have a little bit of the toop coat left, but wondered if this would even stick or peel off. The advice I've had so far is just try it or use some other outside paint of a similar colour.

Google "stablising solution". Lots out there. |

Cheaper than buying a five litre can of stablising solution |
