There are some differences between the acrylic render and cement render. This mainly
includes the price. The acrylic render comes in pre-mixed buckets and can be far more
expensive than the cement render which only uses sand, cement and lime. Acrylic render is
mainly used as a topcoat and the acrylic membrane coating can be applied by a brush or spray
gun, nap roller or texture roller.
Acrylic render can be applied to most surfaces such as fibre cement, plasterboard, painted
masonry and uneven concrete. It also reduces the risk of cracking as it can stretch with
changes in temperature. It is suitable for areas where the climate can vary drastically.
Acrylic render allows for one less coat of paint and can be tinted to the colour by which
you are going to paint your wall. It is highly crack-resistant and no mixing is
required.
On the other hand, the technique you choose for applying the cement render will be
determined by the tools you use to apply it and the finish you want. Most people prefer a
textured smooth finish.
Acrylic render can be applied with a trowel and then sponged or floated over after with a
small amount of water for a smooth finish. Bagging is one of the other techniques for
applying render that provides a very rough finish that uses coarse graded sand and only
requires one coat.
