    It's a cement based render.

    If you are tiling over it then you need to buy / use the lime free version.

    You have to use Webrend OCRT for tiles.

    This is their customer services for techical support

    Weber's Customer Services Department has a team of experienced advisors available to provide on-site advice both at the specification stage and during application. Detailed specifications can be provided for specific projects or more general works. Site visits and on-site demonstrations can be arranged on request.

    Technical helpline
    Tel: (01525) 722110
    Fax: (01525) 718988



    Website:

    To answer the main question.. "When can I tile?" Answer: 3 days after application

    Supposed to know.? .. if you actually said One coat render then maybe we might have known what you were on about.. OCR could mean alsorts... Abbreviations are ok if you are used to the said ones..
