Also keep an eye on the Tyrolean reservoir in the base of the gun and refill if needed. If you need to mix some more solution do so but as mentioned, make sure it is the same consistency as the last mix! Once done you should have an even Tyrolean coating over the entire area that blends almost seamlessly with the existing finish. Aside from Tyrolean there are numberous other render finishes that can be used on the exterior of a property, some of these include:Keep a very close eye on the existing surface and the new surface you are applying and compare the size of Tyrolean blobs. If needed increase or decrease the speed of the gun to adjust the size of the blobs you are applying until they match the existing. If you have worked your way steadily and consistently from one end of the work area to the other you should now have a fairly even finish across your work area, however in most cases a second coat is a good idea just to fill in any missed or thin areas. Tyrolean requires a special type of “Tyrolean gun” to apply it so read on below to find out how to both mix and apply this type fo finish to an exterior wall. Different Types of Render Finish

When in operation, the Tyrolean gun throws and scatters the solution out everywhere so even if there is a potentially vulnerable area away from where you’re spraying, air on the side of caution and get it covered up! Weber Cullamix Tylorean white render is a through-coloured cement based render which provides a decorative and protective finish. Apply onto a base coat, such as a base coat render, cement rendering or concrete, to give an open honeycomb design. It is ideal for use on internal and external walls in most environments, such as coastal, suburban and rural. Benefits To ensure the repair or patching work is as invisible as possible it’s a good idea to paint the entire wall or area that’s been patched and not just the patch itself. Once the second coat has been applied you will then need to leave it for 24 hours to fully cure. In some instances if the weather is colder it may take a little longer to fully cure. Apply Paint or Final FinishOnce your rendered surface has been laid on or repaired and has fully cured a Tyrolean final coat can then be applied. Tyrolean powder comes in 25KG bags and is essentially mixed in the same way as plaster in that you add the Tyrolean power to the water.

With all your potentially vulnerable areas covered and protected, the first task is to mix up a Tyrolean solution that can be applied to our given surface. At the end of the day im a good sparky, roofer, plumber and basic chippy but im definitely no renderer ! I have only just discovered that most masonry paints and some wall coatings can be applied with an 'air texture gun' like this one, One of the reasons I hired a tyrolean gun was the fact that I have 2 years experience of spraying furniture and metal etc. Obviously I made a mistake because applying tyro is entirely different and requires more muscle than finesse.With the powder added, use a mixing paddle or whisk as they are also known in an old electric drill to mix the power and water together. As you can see in the image below there is a small lever on the side and this is used to adjust the size of Tyrolean blobs that end up on the wall. To create larger blobs the handle is adjusted so that the fingers or prongs rotate slower causing larger blobs to be emitted, where as when adjusted to rotate faster smaller blobs are emitted for a smoother finish.
