The end wall of MIL's bungalow is rendered, and a very small bit of the render has cracked off - possibly it has been hit by a vehicle.
I'm sure that the right way to fix it is to mix up a small amount of sand and cement, and add some PVA, trowel it on and wait for it to dry, and then paint it white.
Is there something I can buy, ready-mixed in a tub that I can just slap on and be done with? Preferably without it needing to be painted.
Something like this?
The hole is 4cms across and 2 cms deep, ie really small. :)
I can use that one, but it's grey, as are the one or two others I've found.
I think stuff with suitable properties for use outdoors is likely to need a splash of paint. Maybe you could get away with some ready mixed waterproof tile grout?
not quite, but epoxy mortar or even car body filler is grey and is set within a day making paint very easy to slap on...
Or you could use white Milliput.
The problem with mortar is that it sets and if it something in a tub
*dries* it will go crap if it gets wet. So you will at best get a bag of sand and cement that you mix up with water. That will be useless three months after opening.
I think I'll give in and get the exterior filler that Martin kindly recommended. I can always go back another day and give it a splash of paint. :)
I have some Aldi stuff that does the business (internally anyway) that's a bit like this:

Nearly... the ready mixed Tetrion type fillers will do the job, but will need painting.
A two part polyester resin filler like:
