Rendering Outside Wall

I'm going to try my skills at rendering the back of the office wall, outide. Only 2mtrs square ish, so even I won't be able to mess up, completely!!
Is it worth Unibonding the surface first, or is soaking it OK, just using water?
& should I just do 1 coat, or a couple. Using sand cement, mix 5-1 ratio - if that's correct!!
Thanks!

Thought that, too, but needs doing before the other bits of the garden can be done, so...fingers crossed!!
