When applying the mesh, ensure each strip overlaps the previous one when embedding it within the basecoat layer. A black marker printed on the mesh indicates the required overlap. For areas needing additional reinforcement beyond standard EWI/render systems, you can use a double layer of mesh. First, embed the mesh in vertical strips down the wall, then embed a second layer of mesh at a 90-degree angle to the first. To accommodate both layers of fibreglass mesh, you may need to increase the thickness of the basecoat layer to 8mm instead of the recommended 6mm.
