So tempted to tell you how mad I went on masonry one time. I'm going to spare you the details of my obsession though.
If you skim masonry with the appropriate filler and sand it lightly you can get a smooth finish that rain will largely run off and the masonry looks better for longer.
It's often better to skim the whole piece and sand it otherwise the patches of different texture will 'grin' and make the masonry look very patchy in some light.
Adhesion is the biggest part of the problem so proper keying before skimming is absolutely necessary.

Just painted my masonry, looks pretty shit, think I need to sand and smooth it out a bit, any top tips anyone?
