Interesting, is this the only wall layer you cannot erase?  Are you having this problem with any other walls?

Did you achieve the two finish1[4] layers with a split region? Whether you know that answer or not, try this:

Change the preview to 'section: modify type' then select 'merge regions' and pick the two finishes. That will allow you to delete one and you'll have to re-enter the thickness for the remaining one.

@teafoe5: Yes it was happening with this particular wall only.

@ Johnzo142: Thanks a lot.. Your trick worked. The issue is with the wall type Exterior - Render on Brick on Block.

i modified it to generate the wall type required.

But could you please tell us what are the divisions that ive highlighted in the image attached. Are these sweeps or reveals? I tried modifying them but couldnt.

Thanks a lot.

You can see what they are for yourself and you should learn how to modify walls.  Click on the sweeps button.
