Lime Wash

This Traditional Coating Is Coming Back

Lime is used in many stages of building. Limewash is the refined, finished version of what is underneath, while conserving the character and strength by encouraging it to breathe. It dries out so quickly that dampness doesn't penetrate the thickness of the walls. Dry rot is virtually non-existent because lime dramatically reduces microbes that assist in decay. Weather resistance is another of its durable qualities. Limewash heartily withstands extreme temperature changes due to coarse, simple structures and crystalline composition.

Beautiful Aesthetics

The soft matte, silk-like results from fine, aged lime cannot fully be matched by modern materials. Manufacturers of modern paints have become too good at producing perfectly even products; 100% bland. 30 years of rag-rolling and color-washing remind us of the worth in considering natural variations, textures, and delicate effects connected with the welcoming warmth of limewash.
