Hi
I have just had the exterior of our house replastered and a fine down finish. Coming in last night after there rain I noticed all cracking pattern formations.
I used white cement thinking it would be white when finished but obviously a big mistake.
I intend to paint over it but I am wondering if the cracking will show.
Any idea to what has caused it, it is not hollow sounding and it went on face brickwork with a rough textured surface, the brickwork also had a good soaking for the scratch coat.
