Application

Pour no more than 10 litres of clean water into a mixing tub.

Gently add Limecote, mixing with a plasterer’s paddle, do not add all of the dry plaster at once, bring gradually up to the required consistency. If necessary, add more water.

There is no ‘right or wrong’ amount of water to add, it can be used at what- ever consistency best suits the job, be it thinned down for spraying or thick enough to hand mould into heavy relief as with modelling clay.

Once the Limecote is uniformly mixed, gently add all of the fibres from the small bag and mix thoroughly.

  • Limecote does not need to stand, it can be used straight away.

Description

A versatile lime plaster based on a 600-year-old recipe. It can be used on most backgrounds, from thin skim over historic lime plaster to 40 mm+ heavy relief work applied internally or externally.


Features and benefits:

  • Non-hydraulic, breathable and flexible.
  • Particularly suitable for skimming over existing plaster.
  • Use a thick mix to dub out or thin to spread onto a flat background.
  • Limecote can be used at most thicknesses as a single application, or multiple coats.
