Apologies, I did have a look around the site but didn't find what I was looking for. I feel this is probably commonly asked questions, so I thought I'd break it down into a thread that thoroughly covers the topic, to help myself and others.
*Building a DIY rock wall*
The correct materials:
- What type of foam? Some good places to obtain it?
- What type of spray / expanding foam? What brand/'s? What to look for / check for?
- What type of glue for the foam (gluing foam together)? What brand/'s?
- What type of Grout? or/vs Render? Which is better? Why? List some brand/'s?
- What type of sealant? Can you use silicone? What brand/'s? What to look for / check for?
- What type of paint? Mixed with what?
The Process:
- How many layers of grout? What is the minimum amount of layer's vs the ideal amount of layer's?
- How many coats of sealant? Again minimum vs ideal?
Correct order?
Step 1 - Grout
Step 2 - Paint
Step 3 - Sealant
Any absolute Do not do advise? Any hits / trips or tricks?
Additional Questions:
Where can you obtain cork bark?
Where can you obtain Heat foam wire cutters?
Where can you obtain fake moss?
Thank you!
