Original Message "RE: Lime Putty, Pit Lime, Quicklime, Slaked Lime" Posted by admin on 10-Dec-10 at 03:21 PM sure it will work better then type-s construction lime. The question is what do you want to do? paint or test lime? (testing requires working knowlege and experience in fresco painting) Chemical formula is one thing - practice is another - you deal with many factors including "human factor" and purely scientific formula does not provide that. Keep in mind that Lime Corporation Tests are targeted for construction (building walls) not painting. you need to slake it and age it to match placticity and "fresco friendliesness" of a proper aged pit lime. if you want to put the work in and test, let me know results in a few years. the extra cost that comes with proper lime will be far less the cost of trial and error. hope that helps
