Thanks everyone for sharing
C_L_esprit, I am curious what is the ratio of thinset, lime and sand in your first plaster coat with the fibermesh? And is there a particular type and grit of sand that you find works best?
I’m getting ready to build a heater with concrete block facing. This will be my first go at these materials so I value any such detailed information…
thanks
