OBSERVATIONS: |
Tradesmen familiar with the use of lime plaster, and with experience of its successful use should be employed. Lime putty plasters do not perform as modern gypsum, cement or hydraulic lime based materials. Non-hydraulic lime sets only by reaction with atmospheric carbon dioxide in the presence of moisture. This 'carbonation' is a slow process and control of the drying and curing process by 'tending' and protecting is crucial to success and long term performance. Do not use in temperatures of 5 ºC and falling. Protect from frost. See RJ 2.05 Use of Haired Basecoat
and Fine Finish Plaster info sheet.
