Repairing a Fire-Back with Fireplace Render

I have a Fire-Back (cast concrete type or whatever it is) in my open fire which is used quite often in the winter and it has seen better days. There is a large crack now running up the bottom half and this is crumbling away. I'm looking at ways of repairing it as opposed to replacing it at the moment (Christmas and all that) and was wondering if anyone had any experience of this they would like to share.
I was thinking of using Fireplace Render like this for example (http://shop.vitcas.com/vitcas-fireplace-render-260-p.asp?gclid=COzNq8-lh7sCFTMftAodEnwAZg)
Anyone any views....????
