    Is the gyprock pro lite topping compound ok to be used over cement rendered walls?? I want to just fix some of the scrapes and scratches before I paint and have some of this product left over. If it isnt suitable does anyone have any reccomendations

    For light patching it will do the job. It will shrink a little into deeper scratches. So you will need to go over it a few times.

    It will sand back easy.

    Top coat is not bad to smooth the grain in timber being painted too.

    A lot of painters just use top coat for patching small dents and marks before applying the final coats.
