Question

Been advised dashing is good so it can be dashed over, is this safe?

Marc · Accepted Answer

It's better to be removed as there is always a chance it will crack

Dafydd · Answer

Yes nothing wrong with that as long as its solid. I'd always advise that they make sure they put render mesh through the render scratch coat

Michael · Answer

Yes, you can dash over dash, but I recommend you make sure none has blown. In other words, hollo. If everything is soun,d give it a good cover of PVA, or better is SBR from most builder merchants, then scratch coat to get it flat bead up around doors and windows, then on the dash coat same as before PVA it this will hold it back as well from drying to quick that's the last thing you need apply thing coat on render and then dash don't take it too lightly its a skill to dash

Justin · Answer

Yes as long as you use render grip first as the plasterer will not know the mix ratio in the dashing coat
