#0, Type S Lime Putty Question
Posted by sarahburton on 30-Sep-13 at 10:53 AM
I have pails of Type S Slaked Lime Putty (dolomitic lime) and I need to find a use for it.

Is it possible to use this slaked lime as a base (after Portland cement layer) for Lime Paint (Calce Pittura) for fresco painting?

I have Calce lime paint, Marmorino and the slaked lime in large quantities and wish to do some artwork with these products to use it up. I'm doing to do some art shows next year and I want to create inventory for these art shows with the product.

My question is this: Can Lime Paint be applied to the surface of the Slaked Lime Putty for the final coat of decorative painting?

Thanks!
