Hi I have just had my conservatory wall cement rendered on the inside. (So its able to take water as there are beds inside for the plants.) How long do I need to let it dry out and what paint should I use? Any help would be great thanks Jon
What do you mean by 'able to take water'? You mean cope with the odd bit of over-spray when watering yer plants? Or actually have damp plants/soil/whatevs constantly against it? If the former, silk emulsion would probably do, although masonry paint would be better - both straight on. If the latter, then I guess some form of tanking.
Hi thanks for your comments. the render doesn't go down into the flower beds , but stops above. the walls will get a soaking when the hose goes on to water. Hence not wanting to use the usual plaster on the walls. was thing of just using sandtex masonary paint, but checking if ok to use inside. Cheers jon
